Kinemathek – Art House Theater

Inge Meysel as a Hamburg “mere” housewife who, after decades of marriage, was left by her husband for a younger woman and must now find her way in life on her own.

In six one-hour episodes, originally broadcast from January through March 1974 on Sunday evenings on ZDF, the title character endured a seemingly endless series of humiliations and disappointments as she tried to make new connections, earn money, and give her life new meaning.
