Henriette, the buoyant wife of a politician leaves her ambitious husband in the middle of an election campaign and begins a new life. The fact that, as the still legally married wife of a public figure, she takes a job as a model for lingerie just can't go well.
Acting
Elfi Eschke commits fully to the absurd premise.
Costume
The lingerie choices are genuinely unhinged.
Director
Reinhard Schwabenitzky

Director Reinhard Schwabenitzky was better known for TV movies; this theatrical release barely screened outside German-speaking markets.
