Trama

The obscure philosopher Georg almost withdrew from the world to concentrate on his studies, especially Heraclitus, having no relationship since his mother's death. When he wants a new suit for a lecture (actually very minor) about his new book, he meets the sisters Franziska, Breate and Marthe, who run a boutique, share a house and have a lover each. They invite him to dinner, Franziska even on dates. Falling off a boat he gets naked with her, and they become lovers. The girls all take to him and get him to move in, spoiled by all and offered polygamy.—KGF Vissers

Georg Hermes is an obscure philosopher who has nearly withdrawn from the world to concentrate on his studies, primarily of the Greek philosopher Heraclitus. He's had virtually no human contact since his mother's death some three years earlier. When he needs a new suit for a lecture about his new book -- a minor affair, actually -- he meets the sisters Franziska, Beate and Martha who run a boutique, share a house and have all taken a lover. They invite Georg to dinner, and subsequently Franziska asks him to take her out boating. Georg falls out of the boat. He and Franziska make it to shore, where they shed their soaked clothes and become lovers. The girls decide to have Georg move in with them in order to continue his philosophy studies. They spoil him outrageously, and enter into a blissful polygamous relationship. Eventually Georg has to ask, "Why me?" The answer is as startling as it is unexpected!
