Wiki.
The wrong weight is the filming of the novel The False Weight. The story of a calibrator by Joseph Roth from 1971. This is about the Eichmeister Anselm Eibenschütz, whose task is to control the weights on the markets in a small dirty border village of Galicia. Because of his pedantic manner with which he performs this task, he is hated by many.
