Flug des Falken plot

1838. The 18-year-old Friedrich Engels from Wuppertal enters the soil of the free Imperial and Hanseatic city of Bremen, to become a merchant in the trading house Leupold according to his father's will. Germany groans under the yoke of the Prince of Metternich, but in Bremen everything is different; the gateway to cosmopolitan America is wide open. A carefree life lies ahead for Engels, but his love for the truth and his sense of justice endanger him and cause him inner conflicts. He begins to write poems and political reports under the pseudonym 'Oswald'.
