There's something exploitative about this film that deals with the sexuality and love among the elderly. Inge is a woman in her 60's and apparently happily married with children and grandchildren. After a carnal affair with a client, she leaves her husband with devastating consequences. The attempt is something noteworthy given the subject matter but the problem lies in the script which never goes beyond the surface why an elderly woman leaves her husband of thirty years for another man she barely knows and is based mostly on sex. There's nothing special about the story itself if the characters were any younger. Most of the credit goes to the actors, specially Ursula Werner who risks everything for this non-plausible story. YRCinema's coverage of upcoming releases.
