Synopsis: Set in the 18th century, this costume drama portrays the tumultuous making of Frederick the Great. Introduced as a missing person, in shots of an empty bed and a vacant chair, the young Prince Fritz denies his pre-ordanied role as heir to the Prussian throne. After harsh re-education at the hand of his father, Fritz resituates himself in the world of straight lines, uniformed masses and unquestioned allegiances.
