In 1795, the young poet Friedrich Hölderlin commences his position as private tutor for the Gontard family in Frankfurt. Little does he know that he is about to meet the love of his life. This marks the beginning of a long, passionate love affair that would change his life forever. This is part 1 of 3. Apologies for my sometimes unclear or incorrect pronunciation of words.
