During the time of the Peasants' Wars, the free knight Götz von Berlichingen gets into all kinds of private and political entanglements when he defends the Bishop of Bamberg.

Insurgent peasants, of whom he becomes the leader, also betray him by attacking a town against the condition that no violence be used.
