As her marriage seems to be fading, Angelica (Sunnyi Melles) decides that her husband (Heiner Lauterbach) needs to experience a few sins of the flesh to reboot his desire for her. She enlists her friend Lotte (Katharina Thalbach), who inadvertently becomes the true object of the husband's affection. Dörrie turns the gender tables from Men to women with this film, considered by many critics to be her best. 1986, Germany, in German with English subtitles, 100 minutes.
