Ein Sohn aus gutem Hause

Vienna, during the Austro-Hungarian Empire: Because his mother is disowned by the family due to an extramarital affair, Max's strict father sends the 13-year-old to grammar school in Prague. There he befriends the cultured Karl, who conspicuously seeks physical contact ... Lukas Förster: ‘One gets the impression of a world that surrenders to the coming war without realising that it is the world itself that is bringing it about.’
