action
The Munich car dealer Jan, a man with a blue sports car and in his “prime”, as they say, married the rich Angela. She got him a managerial job in her company. While she sees in him an always available toy boy, a sexually available lover, about whose character and loyalty she does not have too many illusions, Jan's interests with his cynical wife are purely financial: he hopes for his marriage to Angela social advancement and a lot of money that he plans to bring through with another, much younger and more attractive woman, the blonde Gina. But soon he has to bury his expectations, especially since Angela keeps her husband short, about whose infidelities she has long learned, and his hoped-for luxury life largely takes place in a golden cage.
Jan plans to break out of this cage and therefore wants to murder his wife, since he does not intend to endure Angela's alcoholism or her obsession with sex. She hadn't even announced quite clearly: “You won't get a penny out of me in a divorce”. And was his reply not this: “I said nothing about divorce. For you, my jewel, you have to come up with something else. " Together with his lover, Jan, who had already practiced shooting at a statue that night, forges a perfidious murder plan. Everything seems to work out, but surprisingly the tide turns at the last moment ...

Reviews
“A sex- and alcohol-addicted factory owner uses an attempted murder of her dependent husband to force him even more under her will. Ordinary mixture of sex scenes and crime elements. "
"Wolfgang Becker ... serves up an absurd erotic drama, which also bears the significant alternative title" Trio Pervers ". Conclusion: Sex & Crime with the Kubitschek: musty, conservative, sterile. "
