Tabu – The Soul is a Stranger on Earth

Two solidary children go from clinging to each other for companionship to becoming soul mates, then lovers; no one can tear them asunder, not even they themselves. Georg and Margarete Trakl, the great poet and his muse, protagonists of perhaps the greatest never-before-told forbidden love story in history.
