The wife of a tycoon no longer wants to be just her husband's decorative accessory... One of the most significant works of the time: a melodrama with court scenes on marital and other possessions, including the portrayal of Adenauer's FRG as a Biedermeier of modernity with an aseptically rigid perception of beauty and harmony.
