Rudolstadt, a small provincial town in Germany, 1788. The beautiful Caroline von Beulwitz is unhappily married, longing for love and life. Charlotte von Lengefeld, her shy sister, dreams of finding a husband. The two are a heart and soul, until he enters their lives: Friedrich Schiller, the poet who wrote "The Robbers", an overnight sensation, the espouser of proto-revolutionary republican ideals. During the hot summer, the two women compete for the man.
