The film won the FIPRESCI Prize at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival. The story is set at the beginning of the 20th century. When Thomas Torless (Mathieu Carriere) arrives at the academy, his learns how Anselm von Basini (Marian Seidowsky) has been caught stealing by fellow student Reiting (Fred Dietz), and is obliged to become Reiting's "slave," bowing to Reiting's sadistic rituals. Torless follows their relationship with intellectual interest but without emotional involvement.
