inkSlam only happens once a year but when we hear about something amazing, we want to make sure you know. This Friday marks the exclusive LA & NYC opening of

Young Goethe in Love, a new film from Music Box in theaters this weekend at The Landmark! The film tells the story of Goethe, Germany’s most famous and influential poet, philosopher and all-around intellectual – and his journey going from a failed young law student with quashed literary hopes into international literary celebrity.

This story is the stuff dreams are made of.

We have tickets to give away and we want you to win them! Follow us on twitter @inkSlam and tell us your dream.

The first five win!
