The six-part ZDF documentary soap gives us an authentic and humorous insight into the multifaceted life of Walter Lehnert, known as ‘80-Euro-Waldi’ from the ZDF show ‘Bares für Rares’.
The series centres on Waldi's life on his antique farm in the Eifel. Here he welcomes junk lovers and anyone interested in hearing his stories. But that's not all: Waldi also shows that he is a real entertainer and artist. Whether with paint and brushes in his studio or on stage - Waldi loves the spectacle. And he wouldn't be Waldi if he didn't try everything: even a carnival performance is on his to-do list. In his studio, he paints pictures and models oversized works of art that have long since found their way into exhibitions. Whether on stage, painting or entertaining his guests - the programme always shows him as approachable, authentic and with a twinkle in his eye.
‘Waldi's World’ is an unique mixture of humour, emotional moments and real stories.
In six episodes, viewers experience the highs and lows of a man who knows how to entertain people while always remaining true to himself. Misadventures and mishaps are just as much a part of Waldi's life as the special successes and the joy of life in his beloved Eifel region.
