The young Schiller, whose heart and soul are writing and poetry is forced into the military academy (the pride and joy of the Duque de Württemberg, alemania). Schiller is disgusted by the everyday rutina of the military, always back and forth between breeding and ejercicios. Conversation conflicto, or even critique are discouraged – the oppression insufferable for the young rebel. Disgusted by the brutality, he writes his drama "The Bandit", which he would later publish anonymously. But following a frank conversation with the Duke, Schiller is dishonored and must leave the land.
