No other music says so much about from love.

Is not it the most beautiful

what you have ever heard?

I know myself with opera not so good,

but the music was impressive.

- Yes!

- Impressive, but also sad.

But why

sad?

Since so much joy lies in the last words of lsolde,

when it unites

with Tristan.

"Highest pleasure,"

she sings.

It is free

now.

Free of ev

rything.

And they can finally

experience love.

The pure

love.

Stay close to derTr,

so that you can lead me.

Yes, Ma

esty.

If we have now received at last?

-L untertnigst please pardon.

Your Imperial Majesty

music)

Ludw

g?

Ludwig, are

This is

agic!

Welcome to my

paradise garden!

This night sky,

this is a dream.

As a child I looked to the sky

and firmly believed that at some point instead of

rain and snow

also diamonds wrden fall.

Or at least a piece

of chocolate.

You are the first

to see the drfen!

You'll be the pioneer of an electricity

in Bavaria.

The premiere was wonderful,

Ludwig. Thank you.

But you httest your enchanted Mnchnern

to show your happiness.

You are fled

too fast.

How to find your

people, who are you?

You are far but, shouting and cheering as

gives me a headache.

Hm

A lunar r

inbow.

As a mild summer night

on Rose Island.

How it would be if

we tomorrow ...

Wrden celebrate this success together

on Rose Island?

Without me. I gotta back

to results to Vienna.

Urgent. Franz-Josef has

telegraphed to me.

It smells of war. l am worried.

Large worries.

Depart ye, depart,

her TBCs thoughts!

Elisabeth, I correspond at regular

Abstnden with the King of Preuen.

He will not dare to escalate the conflict with Austria

.

But Bis

arck!

It really wre a grace of God,

if he die dignity, the scoundrel!

Since all the dignity a groes

misfortune spared us.

Elisab

th.

God's grace can win tonight

Wagner's music.

- God is also this ...

- You, Louis, you can win his music!

The good God

will help me.

And guide my steps

on the path of peace.

You need to have no

fear, Elizabeth.

You will not lose your kingdom.

L working on it day and night ...

No! Light!

Instant light!

Majesty, it's only a

matter of seconds.

Richard Wagner then

you have found,

and majesty is now

for you be found?

I respect only to

the royal will.

Majesty need nature to

schpfen for strength.

Do I understand

well.

On the hunt even I can personally think

best.

Not gengend, Mr. Kabinettssekretr.

Not gengend, it seems to me.

Do you mean in all seriousness,

you bruchten in these troubled days ...

No powerful

king?

Yes, because wages sent is not aware

that in these "moving days",

has nmlich since Friday

extremely aggravated the crisis?

Because no decisions

could be taken.

Due to the absence of majesty.

This must just imagine it!

I ask you a King is not blo

Under a typewriter ...

In the hands of his ministers.

- Yes, yes, yes, you're right, Mr. Lutz.

Still, he is a very fatal influence under

.

In short, if Majesty

continue to stay away from Munich,

then threatens our country

in the gegenwrtigen unstable situation ...

An absolute

disaster.

Majesty know

his duties.

Your tongue is

pointed, Mr. Lutz.

Take care

take care not to violate it.

If Majesttnchste week

then I'll make you personally

DAFR responsible.

And from today I will

take over the search itself.

Minister of the

Pfordten asks tell

the German Confederation.

Ludwig, I beg you,

You're at a crossroads

verhngnisvollen.

Your power you'll can only claim

if you sttzen minister,

But it's not yet

too late.

If you now hltst your

speech from the throne,

then you can post your ideas

represent clear.

And then you callest a new ministry,

which you can use to prevent the war.

I told you here a few names

written by Mnnern,

I think ideally suited fr,

to replace your current ministers.

It's just a

uggestion.

Rich

rd

new minister will not make the construction of our

festival theater possible.

It's not about music, it's about war.

To downfall.

(Ludwig)

l will not accept

that Austria is excluded from Preuen

from the German Confederation.

There will be no civil war in

Germany.

Not with

me!

I have been in contact with the peace party in

Berlin.

I'll untersttzen.

If ntig, with money.

The peace party to Bismarck

under pressure.

He must give up his

impertinent war intentions.

You, gentlemen

...

Who want to tell me

for the construction of this theater ...

Is no money

vailable.

The state treasury was empty,

you have complained.

Fri these disgusting war you are willing to spend huge sums

.

I tell

you, no!

(Murm

r)

Under any circumstances I will grant the mobilization of our army.

It's that

simple!

For your world!

Peace!

- Yes. There is so much to.

Outside, at the Odeon Square

students demonstrate for peace.

You want the same

"Peace not only for Bayern,

also for the whole world," they cry.

Majesty just has a

lot of friends.

Thank

ou.

Oh, the

ooks.

Let me t

rough!

Tell me how to

proceed for that?

The campaign of defamation of your gentlemen Minister against me,

which is always unertrglicher.

-L please.

Wagner puts his money for

the new weapons of our army in the bag.

Unersttlicher His

appetite ...

- Can you perhaps let time alone?

- Majesty?

Its unersttlicherAppetit

Can only be compared with biblical Heuschreckenschwrmen
