Füsilier Wipf
''Fusilier Wipf'' (German: ''Füsilier Wipf'') is a 1938 Swiss drama film directed by Hermann Haller and Leopold Lindtberg and starring Paul Hubschmid, Heinrich Gretler and Robert Trösch. When the First World War breaks out, a hairdresser's assistant in neutral Switzerland is mobilised for border protection duty.
