Germany, year 1772. The young and boisterous Johann Goethe is sent by his father to a sleepy little town to mend his ways after failing his law exams.

However, Johann is unaware that Lotte is in fact already engaged to Kestner...

Critics' reviews
- "Young Goethe in Love wants only to engage an audience with a capital-R Romantic ideal of Goethe's first love. It does so very well. And it was well worth the effort."
- "If you can tolerate the overbearing music (think John Williams at his most manipulative), this is relatively painless, thanks to a lighthearted tone and some energetic lead performances."
