Not really getting anywhere with his law studies or his writing, Johann Wolfgang Goethe travels to Wetzlar to take position as a court clerk. At first unhappy, he soon feels better when he falls for the charming Lotte, who comes from a simple home. But she has been promised to Goethe's superior, who wants to stick him in jail. Which is all more than enough material for "The Sorrows of Young Werther", Goethe's immensely successful first novel.
