London, 1944. Seemingly far from the war in Europe, two schoolboys find they have much more pressing concerns than the fighting on the front line. Melchior rekindles a passionate love affair with an old flame, but beneath his confident, roguish exterior lies a young boy who finds himself out of his depth. What starts as a romantic chapter in their young lives soon takes a violent turn with disastrous consequences that threatens to tear them apart. For Mortiz, however, girls are the last thing he wants to think about. But he can’t ignore his natural desires for much longer, especially with the new crowd Melchior introduces him to. And with the expectations of a demanding father on top of the ever-increasing piles of homework, Moritz finds himself struggling to cope with the amounting pressure.
Spring Awakening is a story of youth, innocence, and the awakening we all ultimately experience. It explores the power of friendship, lust, and the role of society in dealing with childhood traumas.
