About the show

Wally loves the hunter Giuseppe Hagenbach, but her father orders her to marry Vincenzo Gellner or leave home. After her father dies, Wally learns that Hagenbach is engaged to the innkeeper Afra. When Hagenbach wins a bet to kiss Wally, she becomes furious and orders Gellner to kill him. Gellner throws Hagenbach into a ravine, but Wally rescues him. Later, in the Alps, Hagenbach returns and confesses his love. As he seeks a safe path down the mountain, his call triggers an avalanche that carries him away. Wally throws herself from the precipice.
