What would happen if you gathered all the lovers you have had in your life in a single room and let them interact for a week? For his 60th birthday, a self-absorbed composer, Adam (Hanns Zischler), does just that: he assembles seven of the most influential women from his life and invites them to his seduced lakeside cabin. The guest list includes Adam's current wife Eva (Cora Frost), along with their two children who live in Berlin; his gorgeous second wife Lulu (Adriana Altaras), who is an actress; and his down-to-earth first wife-turned-nun Berenice (Irm Hermann), with whom Adam has an embittered, estranged son Billy (Guntram Brattia), who shows up along with his wife. Also invited are a quartet of women with whom he had often overlapping trysts, including student Marion (Khyana El Bitar), sexy Jacqueline (Amelie zur Muhlen), opera singer Lucia (Isabel Hindersin), and of course, Lilith (Sabine Bach). As the week ensues, Adam gets entangled in a series of romantic misadventures, goes to a fortuneteller and gets whacked over the head with a tree branch. A Silver Bear award for Outstanding Achievement was presented to the entire cast at the 2000 Berlin Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

Erika Mann and her brother Klaus Mann were the oldest children of renowned German author Thomas Mann; while the siblings strove to earn the love and approval of their father, the elder Mann was a cold and distant person, and Erika and Klaus came to depend upon each other for the emotional support they did not receive from their parents -- so much so that they often referred to themselves as twins, even though they were actually born a year apart. As they grew to adulthood, Klaus went on to a successful career as a writer, and Erika also distinguished herself in literature while making a name for herself as an actress. The Mann siblings were also outspoken pacifists and anti-fascists, and both were homosexual, two factors which would complicate their lives in Europe in the 1930s, with little respite when Erika emigrated to England and Klaus to the United States. Escape to Life: The Erika and Klaus Mann Story combines vintage photographs, a rare interview with Erika Mann, and dramatic re-creations of events from the lives of Klaus and Erika, as well as readings from their works by Vanessa Redgrave and Corin Redgrave. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Rudolf Thome directed this German science fiction drama that's slightly reminiscent of Nicolas Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976). Driving to Berlin, Luise (Cora Frost) and Theo (Tilo Werner) give a lift to the enigmatic blond Frank Mackay (Herbert Fritsch), and Luise is immediately attracted to him. However, time-traveler Frank is more interested in locating Laura Luna (Valeska Hanel), author of Tiger-Stripe Woman Waits for Tarzan, so he can take her to a future time when women have died off. Frank and Laura become a twosome, but then her apartment is mysteriously trashed, so they head for her father's remote hunting lodge where a menage a trois develops after Luise turns up (with Theo lurking about in the surrounding forest). Laura begins writing a new novel, Utopian Wife. Shown at the 1998 Berlin Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi
