When 60-year-old Inge (Ursula Werner) suddenly delves into a lively, adulterous affair with the even older Karl (Horst Westphal), she finally confesses her newfound passion to her husband of 30 years, Werner (Horst Rehberg). But will she end her illicit relationship with Karl to keep her unexciting-but-stable marriage intact? Andreas Dresen directs this compelling drama also starring Steffi Kühnert.
