This film has not been shown in German-speaking countries for a long time. I saw it on GDR television in the 1980s. Now you can rediscover the film on YOUTUBE. The law on pimping, which is the subject of the plot, was abolished soon after the film was released. Parents who allowed their underage children (under 21) to spend the night with their boyfriends or girlfriends could end up in prison for pimping.

That is exactly what happens to Mrs Hecker (Berta DREWS) when she allows her daughter Renate (Elke SOMMER) to stay overnight in her mother's apartment with her boyfriend Jochen (Götz GEORGE), who is the same age. The principled public prosecutor Soldan (Wolfgang PREISS) sends mother Hecker to prison. Daughter Renate does everything she can to get her mother out of prison. Soon the married prosecutor can no longer resist the blonde beauty's charms...

That sounds like gossip, and it's true. And yet the actor Jürgen GOSLAR (DAS ERBE DER GULDENBURGS / THE GULDENBURGS' LEGACY) has succeeded in directing an impressive film. Very sensual, full of energy and with outstanding actors, he delivers a powerful portrait that impressively exposes the Adenauer era of the young Federal Republic. GOLDEN GLOBE winner Elke SOMMER (awarded THE PRIZE in 1964) and EUROPEAN FILM AWARD nominee Götz GEORGE (nominated for NICHTS ALS DIE WAHRHEIT / NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH in 1999) were still at the very beginning of their impressive film careers. The film also features a remarkable cast of Scandinavian sex bombs (Ann SMYRNER from Denmark and Ann SAVO from Finland) and up-and-coming young German actors (Horst JANSON and Gottfried JOHN) in the supporting roles. Joachim HANSEN, one of the biggest male stars of the West German film industry at the time, even has a cameo appearance as a patient. And with Carsta LÖCK, Camilla SPIRA and Dorothea WIECK, the old guard of German-language filmmaking is also represented

A very interesting film, whose subject matter is long out of date, but nevertheless impressively shows the cinematic power that can be found in sensationalism. In the 1970s, Jürgen GOSLAR presented two more genre classics of German-language cinema with THE WHISPERING DEATH (1976) and SLAVERS (1978).
