It's 1927 in Berlin. The city pulses with artistic energy, as visionary writers, painters, and performers push the boundaries of their crafts. But a dark cloud looms: the rise of the Nazi party. As Hitler's power grows, this community of Bohemian freethinkers must confront the encroaching threat to their way of life. "The Bohemians" follows these singular individuals as they navigate the treacherous political landscape, their passions and principles tested by the gathering storm.
