00:00Once upon a time, there was a five-year-old orphaned girl named Heidi.
00:07She was a very beautiful little girl with dark brown eyes, short black hair and rosy cheeks.
00:16Heidi was brought up by her aunt Dieter who lived in Switzerland.
00:22One day, Heidi's life was turned upside down when her aunt found a job in another city.
00:31Aunt Dieter, who couldn't bring Heidi along with her,
00:35We're going to the Alps to your grandfather's, my dear.
00:38You'll stay with him for some time and I'll come and get you when my work is done.
00:42This is for your own good, you understand, right?
00:44Yes, I do. You know what's best for me, auntie. I'll bring my dolls with me. We'll wait for you.
00:50I'm also looking forward to meeting my grandfather. I can't wait!
00:55After a very long trip, they finally arrived at her grandfather's cottage.
01:03Grandpa Adolf lived there with his dog Josef.
01:07Everyone knew him as a moody and a difficult man, but he was actually very soft-hearted.
01:15Aunt Dieter explained to him the situation and left Heidi there.
01:19Heidi and her grandpa loved each other from the moment they met.
01:24The little girl's antics brought life to that cottage.
01:28Grandpa Adolf got used to his new life with Heidi and couldn't think of a life without her.
01:34He no longer walked with a frowned face.
01:37Where have you been, Heidi? I feel reborn having you here with me. I love you, my dear grandchild.
01:45Me too, grandpa. I really love you and I also love it around here. Sadly, I have no friends.
01:52There's a boy named Peter. He lives with his blind grandmother in a cottage near ours.
01:58Tomorrow I will introduce you. What do you say?
02:02Oh, that's wonderful! Hooray!
02:08Peter was a boy who was also a goat herder in his spare time after school.
02:13Peter, let me introduce you to my granddaughter Heidi.
02:17Hello, Heidi!
02:19Hello, Peter!
02:21Go on. Go and play together, okay?
02:27After that day, they became very good friends. Heidi and Peter always took the goats grazing every day.
02:34She would climb up steep slopes, much like goats did, and she ran barefooted.
02:42Peter, run! One of the kids is running away from the herd. Let's catch it!
02:49Don't worry. It'll come back.
02:52I'm sure it will.
02:54I'm sure it will.
02:56I'm sure it will.
02:58I'm sure it will.
03:00Don't worry. It'll come back.
03:03Phew! Got scared there for a bit.
03:06Okay then, let me gather some flowers.
03:09I'll give them to your grandmother when we get back. I hope she gives me some fresh goat milk in return.
03:15Peter taught Heidi how to milk the goats.
03:19They also named the goats one by one.
03:22Heidi even cooked soup at home and brought fresh baked bread to grandma.
03:26Her joy and optimism had infected everyone.
03:31After a few years, Aunt Dieter came back to get Heidi.
03:36She was going to take her to a rich family that lived in Frankfurt
03:40so that she could get an education and could have a better life.
03:45I can't give Heidi up. What will I do without her?
03:49Please don't take me, auntie. I don't want to be apart from grandpa.
03:52Please don't take me, auntie. I don't want to be apart from grandpa.
03:56I don't want to leave. I'm very happy here.
04:00You're going to live with a very rich family, Heidi.
04:03You'll live in a huge house and get an education in a very good school.
04:07I don't care about those things.
04:10My dear grandchild, you know how much I love you and how much I will miss you.
04:15But I think your aunt Dieter is right.
04:18It will be a better life for you.
04:22Listen to what I have to say.
04:24The family with whom you'll be staying has a daughter your age.
04:27You two can become friends.
04:29Clara is not able to walk and she has no friends.
04:31She needs a friend just like you.
04:33Come on, you'll see. You'll be much happier there.
04:36Grandpa Adolf and Heidi were both in tears.
04:40After a long trip, they arrived in Frankfurt.
04:44They arrived at a huge house
04:47and the housekeeper Mrs Rottenmeier met them at the door.
04:51Welcome, I'm Mrs Rottenmeier.
04:54And I'm Clara. Welcome, Heidi.
04:57Hello, nice to meet you.
05:00Heidi, it's time for me to go.
05:03Take care of yourself, my dear.
05:05I'm pretty sure you will get along very well with Clara.
05:08Make sure you listen to what Mrs Rottenmeier says.
05:11I love you, my dear niece.
05:14That was when Mrs Rottenmeier's nightmare started.
05:17She always frowned and never smiled
05:20because she was a disciplinarian and a housekeeper.
05:23Okay, the meeting ceremony is over.
05:26Remove those dirty things at once and take a shower.
05:29I'll bring you some clean attire.
05:31Okay, Mrs Rottenmeier, as you wish.
05:34You can come to my room after your shower, Heidi.
05:37We can play together.
05:39Oh, great. I'll clean up quickly and come then.
05:47Clara lived in the big house with her father, grandmother,
05:51the housekeeper Mrs Rottenmeier and the other servants.
05:55Most of the time, she would stay in her room
05:58and never draw the curtains or open the windows.
06:01Heidi was shocked when she entered Clara's room.
06:05She immediately drew the curtains to let the light in through the windows.
06:10All of a sudden, the room was full of daylight.
06:14Clara, look how bright it is now.
06:17Sunshine will always help you feel much better.
06:25As time passed, Heidi got used to her new place
06:28and once again, she had made everyone fall in love with her.
06:31Every day, Heidi and Clara would play with her toys and then study.
06:37Mrs Rottenmeier made it her goal to straighten up Heidi
06:41and turn her into a disciplined girl.
06:43Listen to me. You'd better be a good girl.
06:46Do not run or wander around.
06:48I'm sorry, Mrs Rottenmeier.
06:52Heidi tried to follow all the rules of the house,
06:55but she was having a great time with Clara.
06:58Nonetheless, she still missed the Alps, her grandfather and Peter.
07:03She would always dream of running in the countryside with the goats.
07:08One morning, Heidi couldn't get out of bed.
07:11Clara's grandma went to check on her right away.
07:16Please, Grandma, send me back home.
07:21That cheerful girl that everyone knew and loved had disappeared
07:25and in her place was a sick and quiet Heidi, who had also lost her appetite.
07:29Grandma felt bad for her, so she called in their doctor.
07:32The doctor said that she was nostalgic and the only cure was some medicine.
07:36for her to be next to her loved ones in the mountains.
07:39So, they decided to bring her back to her grandfathers.
07:45My life changed so much thanks to you, Heidi. I will miss you.
07:50I'm so happy, Clara. Please, understand me. That's my real home.
07:55Come and visit me as soon as you can.
08:00Even after a very long time,
08:02Even after a very long and tiring trip,
08:05she was thrilled to see her grandfather again.
08:08She ran to him and hugged him joyously.
08:11I missed you so much, Grandpa, and I missed everything and everyone around here.
08:15I missed you too, my dear grandchild. We'll never be apart again.
08:20Look, Peter is here too.
08:23Hi, Peter. I'm back.
08:28Welcome back, Heidi.
08:31Welcome back, Heidi. We've really missed you.
08:34Even the goats have.
08:39Every day when they climbed the slopes,
08:42she would tell Peter about the mansion and the good times she spent there.
08:45After Heidi's return, Peter was back to his happy days.
08:50I have a new friend. Her name is Clara.
08:54But, I will miss her a lot.
08:57Maybe one day she can come and visit Heidi.
09:01Some months passed. Heidi's wish came true.
09:05Clara had gotten permission to come to the Alps and stay with her.
09:10Heidi! Heidi! Look, I'm here!
09:16I can't believe you're finally here.
09:20Welcome, Clara. We'll have a great time.
09:28The two friends chatted until the late hours of the night.
09:32The next morning, after a wonderful breakfast, Heidi and Clara went out to the countryside and met with Peter.
09:42Clara kept them company while they were grazing the goats.
09:46It was a very different experience for her, but she was happy.
09:50But on the other hand, she was upset as she watched Heidi and Peter run and tumble.
09:58I wonder if I'll be able to run like her one day. I have no idea what that must feel like.
10:05Days passed. Clara regained her health by spending time outdoors in nature.
10:11Her cheeks were rosy.
10:14With the help of Grandpa Adolf and Heidi, she even started to get up from her wheelchair little by little.
10:20Bravo, Clara! You can do it!
10:23I'm… I'm… I'm so scared. What if I fall?
10:28We're here, right next to you. You don't have to be afraid.
10:34One day, as Clara watched Heidi and Peter gather the goats, she saw a cow running towards her.
10:42Help! Help!
10:46Frightened, she jumped out of her wheelchair and took a few steps.
10:49She was walking! A miracle had occurred.
10:53Actually, the cow was running towards the barn, but had caused Clara to walk.
10:58Peter and Heidi were shocked and didn't know what to do when they saw her.
11:02They ran to her and hugged her.
11:05Hooray! Hooray!
11:08You did it, Clara! You did it!
11:13After that day, she took a few more steps every day.
11:16One step, two steps, until she was able to walk.
11:20It was now time for Clara to go back home.
11:23Her father and grandmother had come to take her.
11:28Clara waited for them in her wheelchair.
11:31When she saw them, she got up, ran and hugged them as they entered the cottage.
11:36She wanted to surprise them.
11:38They all sat together and talked about the days that Clara had spent in the Alps.
11:41Clara reminisced about the incident with the cow.
11:47Clara, her father and grandmother stayed a few more days and then returned to Frankfurt.
11:53Everyone was back in their own home.
11:55Heidi in the Alps
11:59and Clara in Frankfurt.
12:01They continued their friendship through letters.
12:05Clara wrote to Heidi that she would come back to the Alps in September.
12:08Clara wrote to Heidi that she would come back to the Alps in springtime
12:12so they could run together and milk the goats.
12:15Finally, snow began to fall and winter had arrived.
12:21Throughout that winter, Peter and Heidi went sledding.
12:27From time to time, they would chat and study by the fireplace at night.
12:33Heidi's grandfather would fall asleep happily by the fireplace
12:37knowing that Heidi would be by his side.
12:40Heidi, her grandpa and all her loved ones lived happily ever after.
