Karin (Miriam Spoerri) is the 30-year-old wife of Robert (Herbert Fleishmann), a middle-aged engineer and workaholic. When Karin feels lonely and neglected, she takes comfort in an extra-marital affair with her bachelor friend Ulrich (Heinz Bennett). Director Christian Rischert uses a realistic, straightforward style that does not glamorize infidelity. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi
