action

Episode 1

The 18-year-old Sabine adores her art teacher Melzer, who does not reciprocate her feelings. Various classmates are keen on Sabine, but have no chance with her because she doesn't want an immature baby boy. So rejected, the three team up and seek revenge. Sabine is lured into a villa by these students under a pretext and put out of action with knockout drops . Then the boys undress the blonde beauty and are about to take nude photos of her when the doorbell rings. When they open, teacher Melzer is standing in front of them. The criminal boys overwhelm him too, so that they can photograph him together with Sabine having "staged sex". When one of the boys can no longer contain himself in view of the well-proportioned shapes of the naked Sabine, the student dies.

Episode 2

The pupil Uli leaves his girlfriend, Betty, who is the same age, rather ungraciously, because his aunt is much older and interests him much more. Both start a relationship. Ulis uncle, Gregor's bank director, does not notice this, as he is currently busy with his miserable financial business. One day, when he confesses to his wife that he has speculated thoroughly and that he is not only bankrupt, but has also embezzled the bank's own money, he instigates his nephew to fake the kidnapping of his wife, Ulis' lover. Uli agrees, the ransom is 5 million DM. Betty sees that her ex Uli is involved in the crime and is then, as an unwelcome witness, also withdrawn from circulation. Little does Uli suspect that the kidnapping of his aunt should only serve as a pretext for a planned murder out of jealousy.

Episode 3

A rocker gang around Passau makes the Bavarian province unsafe. Farmers are harassed, beverage kiosks demolished and a Catholic procession unceremoniously mixed up by motorcycle. A motorcyclist in a bright red outfit soon messes with the gang, beats one rocker after the other with a chain from the bike and chains the rockers to their bikes, ready for immediate collection by the police. The great stranger, Franz, is finally looking for a showdown with the remaining rockers. In a flashback, the motives for his behavior as a "lone avenger" are explained. It revolves around incest , rape, and suicide .

At the end of all three episodes, the respective court verdict for the wrongdoing committed occurs.

Production notes

The film was based on short stories by Herbert Reinecker .

The shooting took place on 26 days between December 13, 1974 and February 12, 1975 in Budapest and the surrounding area. The world premiere was on May 23, 1975.

Vohrer's cameraman Charly Steinberger , who had completed his (first and only) own production Monika and the sixteen-year -olds immediately before filming began in autumn 1974 , brought his two teenage leading actors Maria Zürer and Oliver Collignon with him to this production. Director Vohrer gave Collignon a leading role in episode 1 and Zürer one in episode 2. After this film, the two young mimes disappeared from the public eye again. The Hungarian Terry Torday , who in Monika and the sixteen-year -olds played a seductive middle-aged upper-class lady, was cast in crimes after school . The young Malte Thorsten, on the other hand, played in two Simmel films by Vohrer as early as the early 1970s .

The soft sex elements are distributed extremely sparingly; only Evelyne Kraft and Terry Torday appear naked .

criticism

The Lexicon of International Films wrote: "Thematically and fashionably dressed up, but meaningless."
