Description

When Werther dances with the beautiful Lotte. It is a joy, however, that can only ever be short-lived. Engaged to another man, she tolerates his adoration and encourages his friendship but can never return his love. When he receives a letter telling him that she is married, his passion turns to destructive obsession and is haunted by a certainty.
