Yea !
(Hornig) stringing. Attitude.
Lutz has calculated that you about two million guilders ...
Fr'll bentigen musical instruments all pupils.

The Diet will certainly reject such a burden the Treasury.
Then I'll take over the entire cost halt itself.
Want to know the family go out of business?
You are far but that our budget is not doped very rich!
Mother has already underneath.
You always only think of the material, Otto.
Consider yet again the ldeal. Look at what I can auslsen!

Will to ction.
And now ...
(Playful music)
You're sitting on horseback almost better than I do!
No, Louis, in the saddle I'm the best!
For us, the political situation is catastrophic.
You have to Franz-Josef open the eyes.
He is Austria strzen into ruin,
if he einlsst to a war with Preuen.
Wait, Elisabeth, I open his eyes?
Come on, your husband always thinks just like a soldier.
Even Bismarck will not hesitate to make to take up arms.
He wants to expel Austria from the German Confederation.
If he succeeds, is your Bavaria also be affected.
I do not understand that you these singers from Vienna ...
In such a gefhrlichen time are so important. - Elisabeth,
look at times. Our old lime.
Just as this tree is the art ... Thrive
in Bavaria and grow.
Later, as the wind will carry the seeds into the Nachbarlnder ... Spread
and the peaceful message of Art all over the world.
If you want to make your people happy, give him freedom.
- This is what it craves. - You talk me out of the soul, Elisabeth!
In peace and happiness to my people live, and that is freedom.
You Varies you. I see happiness in your eyes?
I am the encounter love, dearest cousin.
For the first time in my life.
The Love? Erzhl me. Which princess has captured your heart?

It is the Emperor of art.
His power knows no bounds.
And his people is the whole of humanity.
We will collaborate on the world call of beauty to life,

And you, my dear cousin, you need to help us.
If Richard Wagner you so beflgelt,
why are you allowed all of his revolutionary comrades from back then ...
Still vegetate in your prisons?
(Music is ramatic)
Elizabeth. Come on
Elisabeth, look, will you? In the whole world!
Elisab th!
("Tristan and lsolde")
No, thank you, thank you, thank you. That will not at all.
Ye shall not touch up at all.

A utopia eternal togetherness.
You are willing to die for this idea. This has auch'n abyss that is not only beautiful.
The whole thing is A big breath.
And it inspires you. Mutually. When thinking.
You look only forward. Everyone in his parallel world.
Meet up at nfinity.
You sprst exactly who understands you. Again.
Henry, p ease.
(Wagner sings) Without fear ...
(Sings) Like the eye, full of ...
(Exciting music)
Cross hail, thunder! Damn you guy! Let go of me!
Thank God you were only slightly injured.
I have ordered police director Pfeufer,
find out instantly who's behind it.
He certainly will not find the culprit.
He can not arrest his own people.
Majesty, do not ignore the Malicious strength of my opponents.
Your art will disarm Their enemies.
No, no, that's not just about me.
This is a conspiracy to Majesty ...
To prevent them from creating new Progressive peaceful world.
And when I think about it further, then I come to the conclusion that
there is only ever one way:
Fire All Their Prime!
- And above all of the Pfordten! - Mr. Wagner,
I can understand Their panic.
But wait only once from the premiere. You will see
is the Urauffhrung only managed the situation will calm down.
Majesty, I do not sleep. Since no more days.
I know not at all,
I like the samples should weiterfhren in this state .
I have to give up.
The premiere will take place.
(Fanf re)
Long live the king!
(Enthusiastic honors)
(Tristan and lsolde)
Brav .
Wagner has won my Bavaria.
I was sure from the beginning.
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 can now occur.
(Quiet, sphrische music)
Ludw g?
Ludwig, are you here?
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 the state legislature not erffnen,
then I'll make you personally DAFR responsible.
And from today I will take over the search itself.
(Liebestod "Tristan und lsolde")
Oh, we see bullet Could the earth from above.
As free as an eagle.
If I hut a son, then it should be like you
The blessing of nature!
Majes y!
Na, na, na, na!
Majesty, has Preuen Austria issued an ultimatum.
Minister of the Pfordten asks tell
that will take place Most likely a war within the German Confederation.
Ludwig, I beg you, returning to Munich back to results.
You're at a crossroads verhngnisvollen.
Your power you'll can only claim if you sttzen minister,
which you can trust.
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!
Majesty have worked again all night. Hm?
- There is so much to Mayr. - Yes. There is so much to.
Outside, at the Odeon Square students demonstrate for peace.
You want the same as Majesty.
"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 .
This is malos berschtzende man

If the ek lhatt!
For months, I suggest you alternative minister before.
What are you waiting for?
Now finally tell you what!
How many times have we errtert?

From your skin!
This STAGE is my head!

(Man out of the crowd) Who wants to lead the music of Wagner?

You want to force me to mobilize the army .
All the courtiers are DAFR.
Ludw g.
You are a Grail Knight.
You'll have the power to prevent war and Wagner ...
This world does not understand us.
It assesses all wrong. Almost everything.
But I thank you.

We do not want violence with violence bekmpfen.
But Maj sty,
how can Wagner are still protected?
Maje ty
my negotiations with Preuen have failed.
In addition, the current protest against Richard Wagner threatens to degenerate ...
And must be stopped unverzglich.
In times of war danger can our country no unrest in the interior afford.
At today's meeting of the Cabinet ...

Although we have lost the war against Preuen ,
we must cede nothing of our country.
Only the protection and Trutzbndnis is required of Bismarck.
You find it so unreasonable that my army should be to Verfgung ,
if Preuen leads a war?
Yes. It is a good compromise.
So I want my hated enemy today ...
Explain to my best friend tomorrow?
In addition, give up one of my main Knigsrechte?

Only the commander of the army inaugurated.
So you want Trsten my faithful people with lies and deceit?

Since lngerer time I bemhe me to: modify his attitude,
but it will not succeed.
Why do you want: modify Ludwig?
Let him continue building face and its buildings done.
It can only be in the interest of Bayern,
to frdern Exceptional his imagination.
The Bavarian state parliament should ...
One or two percent of the state budget Majesty admit
wren then the financial problems solved. - No, certainly not.
But if you, Your Excellency,
as German Chancellor care about as wrden ...
I have to disappoint you, Mr. Lutz. But this is a purely Bavarian affair.
We will not let us involve in this matter .
You're all fired! Way here!
All of the planning is confiscated.
What are you doing here?
Without the consent of Majesty Never give anything Varies here!
Now you fit exactly on time, Mr equerry Hornig!

that the government in the name of Majesty ...
Has rejected the offer of credit from England.

This is the end.
But do not despair Majesttmssen.
If this small minds Majesty to rob the joy of life,
then can Majesty conscientiously also they rob.

And make the further course of the state machine impossible,
then I can not stand lnger them.

Does it have written lackey Mayr?
Maybe not only written, but also written.
It is therefore not at all sure whether these statements of majesty come from?
And the worst thing is that my contact to Majesty ...
only takes place over this type of letter ,
Mayr allowed to come to me.
Pragmatically this lackey is now the mchtigste man in our state.
Can be more increase this absurdity?
Ludwig has always verfgt about a lot of imagination.
I have sworn Majesty loyalty and obedience.
But you can maintain loyalty to a Unzurechnungsfhigen?
Only radical steps ...
can the Bavarian monarchy save it from total collapse.
Ludwig is the king and this lifetime.

The same is true for many other topics.
Why do not you write to what I tell you do?
These properties of Majesty really interest me less.
