action
The Schwabing citizen Gustl Wohlfahrt has five minutes of his lunchtime for a sandwich; the rest of the time he needs to occupy himself with his wife, whose circulatory properties can be seen from afar. He is young, happy about both children, has a nice apartment, and he is healthy too. Perhaps not quite the latter; Because the sexual mass consumption that has become modern, the new feeling of sex that can be felt collectively, the magazines, the freedom that he observes in the very young, have made him sex-obsessed and made sick of it. He lives in the madness that his wife alone is no longer enough. Terms like sex commune or group sex have softened his brain; he has visions, sees every female being naked. “Well-married sex commune members” are finally searched for in the newspaper; the good woman has to play along, whether she wants to or not. A few of the playmates won in this way turn out to be unsuitable. Findings: either too ascetic or left-knitted. Finally the sex party, the big orgy, takes place. Gustl quickly understands that in this way harmony can turn into emotional and physical chaos, and stimulus into nausea. In the future, the object of his wishes will again be exclusively his wife Helene.
criticism
The evangelical film observer draws the following conclusion: "Parodistic attempt with some nice ideas and sympathetic actors, who still does not provide the expected fun because it is not independent enough and overall stylistically more uniform and witty." The lexicon has a better opinion of the international film : “Turbulent parody of“ illustrated sex ”, with a massive unmasking of sex-addicted slogans and practices.” The Wiesbaden film evaluation agency gave the film the rating “valuable”.
