Baron Manfred von Richthofen (Schweighöfer)
is the most feared and celebrated pilot of the German air force in World War I.
To him and his companions, air combats are events of sporty nature, technical
challenge and honorable acting, ignoring the terrible extent of war. But after
falling in love with the nurse Käte (Headey), Manfred realizes he is only used
for propaganda means. Caught between his disgust for the war, and the
responsibility for his fighter wing, von Richthofen sets out to fly again. |
