These days, things have gotten a little out of hand even in the Swiss countryside. At least, this is what Windleter (Wolfram Berger) thinks, on his farm in the mountains. Even the local girls are a little too forward for him. When he goes to Zurich on a brief jaunt, he visits a "girlie bar" there which showcases Asian girls. On the lookout for a suitable wife, he arranges to have a Thai farmer's daughter sent to him. She duly arrives a few weeks later, and things proceed much to his satisfaction (if not hers), since he is not interested in having sex, even after they marry. They pursue their rather unsatisfying lives together, but the suspicion and racism of their neighbors eventually grow out of control, with tragic consequences. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
