Or playing the HG , one hopes! Mind you, easy to get attached to one's HG but, I hope, not that attached. I feel a euphemism is called for here. Any takers?

If you watch the sequence just before the gurdy is featured you will see a pair off buttocks going up and down in the shadows.

The movie is situated in the early years of 19th century (Napoleonic aera) in France and occupied parts of Germany and Russia of course and in one short clip (only approx. 5 seconds) I saw a lady who play on a luteback-HG with black-and-white inlays on the edge, aside of two bagpipe players.
