Here I stand...

It is the year 1521. Luther, quoted before the Reichstag in Worms, stands there before Emperor Charles V. Again he is invited to revoke what he denied. The Emperor acts and imposes the power of the Reich over him. On his way back to Wittenberg, Luther was sent to the Wartburg on behalf of his sovereign, Elector Friedrich, under the command of Berlepsch. In this hiding place, Luther translated the New Testament into German. In Wittenberg there are riots. Wittenberg citizens, who are under the influence of Karlstadt, have devastated the churches. They have destroyed the images and statues of saints. The horrified Luther hurriedly returned to Wittenberg and helped restore order.

Conscience

The last episode deals with the years 1523 to 1527. Luther marries the former nun Katharina von Bora. In the south of the empire, peasant revolts occur. Luther's former supporter, Thomas Müntzer, advocates the uprisings and continues to fuel them. Luther opposes Thomas Müntzer and the rebellious peasants. The peasant revolts, which were later described by the history of the GDR as a so-called "bourgeois revolution", fail. Thomas Müntzer is trained. In Wittenberg the plague breaks out, and Luther too feels sick and ill. The filming ends with Luther, who has regained strength, and knows that the Reformation is endangered by war.
