Der Millionenbauer (The Millionaire) is a German television series.
The German economic boom of the late 1970s led to an increase of land speculation; taking advantage of this, farmer Josef Hartinger makes a fortune selling his land, and gives up farming, living on the millions he'd earned. Deciding to help his children, he buys out their livelihoods: younger son Martin becomes a beverage distributor, whilst daughter Monica becomes a hairdresser with her own salon. His oldest son, Andreas, however, is a farmer, through and through, and, without any land to farm, he emigrates to Canada. Without Andreas's knowledge, however, his father buys him a farm.
Series two primarily concerns Josef Hartinger becoming a local politician, and running for the office of mayor.
Series one was shot on a farm in Anzing, in 1979; the second series was produced in 1986, and broadcast two years later on ARD. Though the cast remained the same, the filming location changed.
Pixis Medien released a DVD, containing all the episodes, on October 12, 2007.
