Charité is a 2017 six-part German television miniseries.It is set in the Real Life Charité hospital in Berlin, from 1888 to 1893,note presumably; the end is a bit hazy because it compresses historical events like Bismarck's resignation, Behring's success and Koch's second wedding into a relatively short period when, actually, they happened over the course of a few more years focusing on the research, work, and personal lives of the doctors and nurses around the prestigious Robert Koch, half of which are Historical Domain Characters and some of the most brilliant medics of their time whose work is fundamental for the healing of diseases to this day.The main protagonist however is the young Ida Lenze (played by Alicia von Rittberg) who comes to the hospital with appendicitis, can be saved with a surgery that's still new and risky at the time, but loses her job and thus stays as a nurse to work off her debt. Soon, it becomes apparent that Ida has the brains, the diligence and the resilience to become a doctor in her own right — but time period and circumstances are not conducive to her ambitions.Further characters include: Emil Behring: an ambitious young surgeon and immunologist with a difficult character and a history with Ida. When they meet again, they start off a complicated relationship between mentorship, hostility, and attraction. His ultimate goal is the development of a diphtheria remedy, but his colleagues don't take him seriously — or just plain don't want to work with him because of his terrible attitude. He's suffering from manic-depressive episodes and tries to help it out with Laudanum. Georg Tischendorf: a medicine student who'd rather become a photographer but doesn't want to incur his father's wrath. He's the one who gets Ida help for her appendicitis and assists with her surgery, and later falls in love with her and becomes determined to convince his father of his marriage to a woman of lower social standing, all while trying to prove himself among his peer students. Matron Martha: the stern head of the deaconry who keeps the women in line, most of all Sister Therese. She doesn't believe in modern medicine, certain that science is "falsehood" spread by the doctors that has nothing on Christian piety and traditional means of solicitude. It's why she often clashes with progressive Doctor Behring and reprimands Ida for her undue interests. Robert Koch: the famous bacteriologist at a turning point of his career. The research institute at Charité hospital is named for him, and he has a lot of prestige, money, and influence on his hands to drive the progress of medicine forward, but also a lot of responsibility on his shoulders — all the world is looking at him and his Tuberculin, hoping that it will heal consumption. He doesn't think too much of Behring and his project, but a damn lot of himself and his own achievements. Hedwig Freiberg: a lively young actress who fancies Robert Koch, and winds up charming him. Koch's wife takes an issue with her, but Hedwig is not easily driven away. She fully believes in and supports Koch's work, even giving herself as a guinea pig for his Tuberculin tests. Rudolf Virchow: a pathologist with quite a reputation, and rival of Robert Koch with whom he regularly has polite, subliminally vitriolic exchanges about their respective professional opinions. He has doubts that the results of Koch's research will save the world from tuberculosis, and he's right. Virchow criticizes the poor living conditions of the proletarians that lead to the spread of diseases, and uses his bit of influence to demand restrictions on child labor and a new sewer system to better up the hygienics in Berlin. Paul Ehrlich: an immunologist and one of the scientists working for and with Robert Koch, but also one of the few people who puts up with Behring because he believes in the importance of his work. He's a married man, a father of two girls, a victim of increasing anti-Semitism, and one of the few decent men at the hospital who take their work and responsibility more seriously than the potential profit. Sister Therese: a young deaconess who's working hard and never complains. She becomes friends with and falls in love with Ida, helping her to learn the ropes and supporting her actions to help patients. Later, she's one of the first tuberculosis patients who gets treated with Koch's Tuberculin — and one of those who die when the remedy fails. Edith Schöllkopf: a nurse with a social-democratic orientation who wants better working conditions for the nurses and deaconesses at the hospital. She's friends with liberal Professor Virchow. Stine Matzurek: an uncouth, but kind-hearted nurse who has a soft spot for lost cases.In 2019, a follow-up season was made, Charité at War, playing in the same hospital, albeit in a different time und thus with an entirely new set of characters.

The Gentleman or the Scoundrel
 Charite / int_10c444b0
comment
The Gentleman or the Scoundrel: Georg Tischendorf is the Gentleman to Ida, closer to her in age, sweet, courting her gallantly and offering her emotional stability and a secured future. Emil Behring is the Scoundrel, a fickle, difficult man with obvious issues, but ambitious and brilliant, a man who challenges her and supports her own ambitions. However, the trope is not always played straight — Behring has moments of kindness and holds onto his honor as a scientist, and he always takes Ida seriously, whereas Tischendorf has his own shortcomings such as his sexist attitude that a woman has no business studying, and his growing nationalism.

A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing: Tischendorf starts off as the quintessential Nice Guy. He's friendly, shy and full of dreams that Ida supports him in. Only to discover that he thought her own dreams were just womanly whims not to be taken seriously. He also turns out to be an anti-Semite.

The Mistress: Hedwig becomes this — Koch's wife says she'll accept the affair as long as it's kept discreet, and for a while, it works out. Then von Minckwitz publishes a photography of Hedwig and an article about her that identifies her as Koch's lover, kicking off a scandal and causing the end of Koch's marriage and of Hedwig's job at the Varieté.

The Rival
 Charite / int_1c3d047e
comment
The Rival: Where to start? Virchow and Koch are rivals for prestige, Behring considers Ehrlich a rival because he got the position in Koch's laboratory first, although Ehrlich is pretty much the only one who keeps out of the power play, and Behring is also sure that Koch sees a rival in him and so attempts to block his scientific process. As it turns out, he's right about the last one. Koch has always known Behring is brilliant, and so didn't want him near himself. Then there are the romantic rivalries between Hedwig and Koch's wife Emmy, as well as between Behring and Georg Tischendorf, who tend to spit poison at each other in the auditorium.

Poor Communication Kills
 Charite / int_1c445e86
comment
Poor Communication Kills: Tuberculin is still in its test stage, far from being a fully developed medicament, and taking it is highly risky, and Koch knows that and does not intend to be a Snake Oil Salesman. Unfortunately, he hasn't made that clear enough to his audience, so it doesn't take long until the entire world celebrates him for the "miracle remedy" — and is in for a nasty surprise. Also how Behring loses Ida. Director Spinola once again comes up with how much he'd like to consider Behring a member of his family. Behring, grateful for his benefactor's help in his career, says unwittingly that he'd feel honored by that — with Else Spinola clinging to his arm. Director Spinola happily announces his daughter's engagement with Behring. Suffice to say, the latter is rather blindsided, but there's no way of backing out without incurring a lot of trouble.

Green-Eyed Monster: Georg Tischendorf doesn't take it well that Ida has been given a book by Behring, and it gets worse when he sees them sitting together as they discuss medical knowledge. He confronts Ida about it, rather putting her off. Behring is jealous, too, but he's a lot more gracious about it towards Ida — he'll rather openly offend Tischendorf in the auditorium.

Nepotism: The only one who constantly supports Behring's career and helps him up the ladder even after the spectacularly failed demonstration of his diphtheria serum is Director Spinola — and he constantly shoves his daughter Else under Behring's nose, saying not too subtly that he practically already considers Behring part of his family. One of Behring's colleagues even says that someone like him can only hope for success by landing a good match.

May–December Romance: One could think Hedwig only sticks with Robert Koch, thirty years her senior, because he's a renowned Meal Ticket, but she also stands up against his wife to get him help when he's ill even if it means to diminish the chance that the two of them will divorce, she has his back during the Tuberculin scandal, and she marries him after his fame has paled somewhat.

My Country Tis of Thee That I Sting: Both Professor Virchow and Nurse Edith, political allies, are very outspoken in their critique of the state of affairs in Germany and of the emperor. Virchow can afford it, Edith not so much — she's harshly reprimanded by the matron, and later endangers herself as her social engagement conflicts with the law.

Bittersweet Ending: Ida gets to study medicine in Zurich, but her best friend Therese is dead, and she and Behring will never marry; he ends up with Else Spinola more by accident than anything else. Behring has successfully developed his diphtheria serum and is finally recognized as a scientist, but he loses Ida, plus the respect of his colleague Ehrlich whom he betrayed so he'd be the only one who benefits from their project financially and prestige-wise. Georg Tischendorf gets to work as a photographer in the hospital, but his awful behavior has driven Ida away for good, and he winds up a bitter, arrogant anti-Semite. Edith successfully founds a nursing association to better working conditions in the hospital, whereas Matron Martha retires and goes back to her order's motherhouse because she feels her time is over.

Mood-Swinger: Emil Behring, jumping from sunny confidence to cold rage to a tearful, ashamed breakdown. He's infamous throughout the hospital for this and often called out on it, but few acknowledge that it's an actual psychological issue that should be treated — it would later come to be known as bipolar disorder.

Smug Snake: Student von Minckwitz, who thinks a lot better of himself than he has any right to, lives well beyond his means and is willing to do just about anything to pay his debts — including making a public scandal out of Robert Koch's affair and discrediting Hedwig in the process, sneaking around the hospital's rules for a bribe, and stealing Tuberculin to sell it for a lot of money. That last one does him in; he's convicted and exmatriculated in shame.

Accidental Proposal: Behring to Else Spinola. He says to her father that he feels honored to be treated by him as a part of their family — and has missed that, only a moment before, Director Spinola was commenting on what a pretty couple he and Else make. Before he has realized as what his phrasing comes across, Spinola already announces their engagement.

Jerkass Has a Point: Ida snaps at Behring because of his callous attitude towards the patients; Behring replies that a doctor needs to have a certain rigor since tactfulness and compassion don't get the job done. His behavior is still awful, but he's right insofar as one has to be able to bear a lot when working in an emergency hospital.

Teacher/Student Romance: Ida and Emil Behring, oh so much. He lets her listen in on the auditorium in secret, teaches her medical and surgical procedures, writes her a recommendation letter for the University in Zurich — and kisses her whenever he's in a good mood over his successes. Ida knows very well what a troubled character he is, but she's also fascinated by him and admires him. The fact that he supports her plans and believes in her abilities is what motivates her to give him a chance.

My Greatest Failure

My Greatest Failure: Georg Tischendorf is plagued by guilt when he sees Marie in a hospital bed after her Bungled Suicide, blaming himself since he denied her an abortion, both because he didn't want to lose his chance of a medical license and because he didn't think himself capable of performing the procedure. It gets worse when Marie dies and is examined in the auditorium, during which the professor extracts the embryo before everyone's eyes. Behring has come to deeply regret that he didn't marry Ida early on when he should have been there for her, especially since he has realized meanwhile that she's everything he could wish for in a woman.

Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Deconstructed. Nurse Stine brings her cousin Marie to Charité, a sweet young girl of about 14 years who's been impregnated by a lodger. She's one of six children, her father is dead and her mother a prostitute — and when she can't find a doctor who's willing to abort the baby because that's illegal (and Stine explicitly warns her from going to some back-alley quack), Marie is too frightened to go home with another mouth to feed and tries to kill herself. She initially survives the attempt and thanks God for it, but dies a few days later of the ensuing complications, devastating Stine.

Stay in the Kitchen: Georg's father makes clear this is the only way he would consider accepting Ida, a mere nurse, as his son's wife — he deems her ambitions to study utter nonsense. Georg agrees with him. Prevailing in the German Empire in general when it came to women who wanted to be doctors as they were not allowed to study medicine. Luckily for them, they had a chance to study in other countries. This trope was also reason for some women to become nurses, as this at least gave them financial independence so they wouldn't need to get married.

Foreshadowing: Some of the vile things that led to Nazi Germany are already present, like anti-semitism and the belief amongst some that there are differences between the brains of different 'races'. Quite literally when some anti-Semites insult Doctor Ehrlich in the dark. They do so from the shadows and he can't recognize them, perhaps symbolizing that they are not strong enough yet to come out in the open. Also with Georg. He seems to be a nice guy, but his later bad behavior and Ida's future contempt for him is foreshadowed when he is talking drunkly to her after having been missing while he had been needed in the hospital.

But, different than Koch's, his scientific work is profound and throughout authentic, he takes his diphtheria project very seriously, and he actually saves lives, even at his own detriment.

Breach of Promise of Marriage: The initial conflict between Doctor Behring and Ida: Behring was working in her father's medical practice and had been courting her, but after her father's death and loss of her heritage, he left her on her own, and so she ended up ill and indebted as a laborer of the hospital. She's still angry at him, but considers them even after Behring has saved her life with an appendectomy. Behring eventually admits that he didn't leave her out of callousness — he was a patient at a mental hospital at the time, not able to cope with his "episodes".

Professor Virchow is disgusted as he'd rather have the emperor see the bad state the hospital is in so he can get him to agree to better fundings for them and to a general improvement of the health care system.

Science Is Bad

comment
Science Is Bad: Not so much bad as plain useless, according to Matron Martha who deems modern medicine nonsense in comparison to traditional nursing. She comes around after Behring's diphtheria serum heals Nurse Stine.

comment
Gold Digger: Ida accuses Emil Behring of only having taken an interest in her a few years prior because, as a doctor's daughter, she was an advantageous catch. Behring is insulted, insisting that he made his career completely by his own strength. Unfortunately, Ida ends up thinking the same again when Behring winds up engaged to Else Spinola.

Dude, Where's My Respect?

comment
Dude, Where's My Respect?: The nurses complain about the matron domineering them like minors, and especially Edith calls for more freedom and recognition of their hard work. She eventually gets her wish as she's allowed to found a nursing association to enable better working conditions. Ehrlich is angry and disappointed when Behring cheats him out of his share of scientific recognition and financial reward for the diphtheria serum, which both of them developed together.

Living Emotional Crutch: Ida, knowingly and willingly. When Hedwig warns her that she can't save Behring from himself, Ida replies: "No, but perhaps give him support."

comment
Pet the Dog: Behring gifts Ida with an anatomy book so she can further her knowledge. He also gifts Else Spinola with a rabbit for her birthday, which is a kind gesture as well and much appreciated, but it emphasises which of them he thinks is a woman and which a child.
