As guests: AXEL SCHULZ CHRISTINE NEUBAUER. Käthe (Brigitte Mira) has been a widow for ten years now. Helplessly she has to watch how Stefan (Helmut Berger) not only cheats on her beloved granddaughter Christine (Julia Biedermann), but also has turned her good old café into a dubious nightclub. Her only comfort in this situation are her conversations with her dead husband Hubert (Harald Juhnke). Every day she confides her thoughts and sorrows to his photography and still he is even closer to her heart than her best friends Arabella (Helen Vita) and Brigitte (Evelyn Künnecke). One day a miracle happens: destiny gives a second chance to Käthe and Hubert. Hubert returns from the hereafter to stand by Käthe and to save Christine out of the clutches of unfaithful Stefan. But only Käthe can see her Hubert, and so people think that she is more and more talking to herself. The couple thinks about getting Stefan out of the way. Hubert has been an inspector, and now they need all his cleverness to cook up a perfect plan. They want Wilhelm (Günter Pfitzmann) to help them. Wilhelm is a retired policeman who used to be Hubert´s subordinate. He was head over heels for Käthe and still adores her – and Hubert´s jealousy arouses again. Another part of their plan is Frank Morawek (Konstantin Wecker), a former Foreign Legionnaire who now runs the nightclub without scruple. He has his eye on Christine and Käthe wants to distract him from her, because he isn´t exactly her idea of a good catch for her granddaughter. But just as Käthe and Hubert want to make their diabolic plan come true, everything goes another way. Because just like in the good old days of their marriage the couple starts to quarrel like cats and dogs. So they almost forget their plan – when suddenly there is a dead body in the bathtub... The film is based on the novel „After a depraved life“ by Andreas Arnold.

Relentless Women

2000
“Relentless Women” is the NDR Television film with Stefanie Stappenbeck and Barbara Philipp in the leading roles, which was broadcast by ARD on Wednesday 12th March 2003 at 20.15. The script was written by Eckhard Theophil and Manfred Stelzer, who also directed the film. “Relentless Women” was produced by Ziegler Film, Berlin and shot in Berlin, on Romo (Denmark) and the island of Sylt. Fine Holthusen has been sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of her boyfriend Holger. She has spent the last three years behind bars struggling to remember what happened the night he was killed. She was found guilty on the basis of circumstantial evidence, but now Fine is determined to establish the truth and breaks out of jail with the assistance of her friend, a convicted robber called Luzzi. The two women, who would seem to have so little in common, first stop off at Luzzi’s old apartment. Her friend Flash, a gambler down on his luck, is living there at the moment. Luzzi guesses that he will soon reveal their presence to the police, since he has always been a rather dubious character. In fact Fine and Luzzi just manage to get away in time. Fine resolves to return to the scene of the crime in order to establish what really happened. So they both take the train to the north, renting a bungalow in the holiday complex where the murder took place three years ago. Fine, disguised with a black wig and a pair of sunglasses, wanders around and soon finds some memory is returning. She and Holger had argued. Fine went down to the beach and was drinking with three men, locals. Then the men started making advances, and Fine was forced to defend herself... But at precisely this point her memories cease. Luzzi suggests that Fine was probably drugged and raped. During the trial the three men, Henning Jepsen, Wilhelm Lopsien and Bruno Leip, were witnesses for the prosecution. They still live in this seaside resort, and Henning in particular seems to be doing very well; in the meantime he has been able to expand the holiday apartments considerably. On the first evening here Fine and Luzzi invite Bruno to their bungalow and ply him with drinks. Then Fine reveals to him her true appearance. When he recognizes her he gets a terrible shock, and Luzzi is smart enough to make use of this: she accuses him of having raped Fine. He replies: “Not me!” And in this way he clearly incriminates the other two men. Armed with this knowledge, Fine and Luzzi come up with a sophisticated plan which will ensure that the real culprits get the punishment they deserve...
