From a gloomy master, Krabat is inducted into a mill as an apprentice and learns the art of black magic. But the price is high: Every New Year's Eve one of the students must pay with his life. Krabbat's inner strength, a clever friend, and the love of a girl help him to dispel the dark shadows that have long been over the place and its inhabitants. A poetic and traditional German Harry Potter.
