An irresistible inside look at one of the world’s great dance companies, Winter Season is also a sensitive, intimate, and almost painfully honest account of the emotional and intellectual development of a young woman dedicated to one of the most demanding of all the arts.

Friederike, die 1836 in Posen als Tochter jüdischer Eltern geboren wurde und später mit ihren Eltern nach Schlesien übersiedelte, arbeitete als Krankenpflegerin, engagierte sich immer wieder karitativ und verbrachte einen großen Teil ihrer Zeit damit Bittbriefe zu schreiben.
