A poetic story about courage and coming of age.
For audience members aged 11 and older.

Dreams lure Krabat to the mill in Koselbruch, which everyone warns him about because it is not quite right there. Upon his arrival, the eerie miller takes him on as the twelfth apprentice and promises him an easy and beautiful life. Krabat only realizes later that in the mill, not only grain is ground, but the master also teaches his apprentices in the dark arts. Eagerly, he learns the secrets of black magic from the miller and is fascinated by the power it gives him over others. But the price for it is high. As miller's boys keep mysteriously dying, Krabat finds himself deeply entangled in a web of dependency and seduction. To break free, he must make a difficult and fateful decision.

In this classic of youth literature, Otfried Preußler tells of the seductive powers of power and magic, of loss and betrayal, of courage and one's own responsibility in an authoritarian system. A fairy tale about gaining confidence in one's own strength – and thus the possibility of being free.
