This movie is an adaptation of the famous novel by Hermann Hesse that was published in 1930. When young Goldmund is sent to the medieval Mariabronn monastery by his father to be educated, he meets the devout “Klosterschüler” Narziss, who has dedicated himself to the ascetic life of a monk. While they develop a close friendship, Goldmund soon recognizes that this life style conflicts with his desire to pursue a free and unrestrained life. With the encouragement of Narziss he leaves the monastery and embarks on a journey that is filled with adventure and love and an equal compliment of pain and suffering. He discovers his true calling as an artist and after many years of wandering, returns to Mariabronn having been rescued from death by his old friend Narziss.The film will be shown in German with German subtitles.
