Plot.
The relationship between Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the great German writer, and Christiane Vulpius, a village girl, is one of the instantaneous and fiery passion. They lived together for 28 years, 18 of these living in sin, 10 a married couple. Christiane's rival, Charlotte von Stein, a former favorite of Goethe, begins plotting and scheming against her. Christiane puts up with countless insults and humiliations like having to 'disappear' with their son into the servants' quarters and to stay at home on official occasions. Goethe marries her when she saves his life during an attack by plundering Napoleonic soldiers. Her new social position as Goethe's wife is resented and envied by all. When she is openly attacked by the snooty, jealous people, Goethe is only half-hearted in coming to her defence. But she stays with him for he is her great love, even when she turns to the charms of many youthful admirers..

Wiki.
The bride is the last feature film by the director and writer Egon Günther. Again, after his films Lotte in Weimar (1975) and Die Leiden des junge Werther (1976), he turned to the famous German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. This time, he shows Goethe's relationship with his later wife, Christiane Vulpius, from the beginning of 1788 until her death in 1816. Egon Günther wrote the script based on an idea by Albrecht Börner and also directed it.
