The young Schiller, whose heart and soul are writing and poetry, is forced into the military academy (the pride and joy of the Duke of Württemberg). Schiller is disgusted by the everyday routine of the military, always back and forth between breeding and drills.

Disgusted by the brutality, he writes his drama "The Bandit", which he would later publish anonymously.
