Sehnsucht
Valeska Grisebach
A man and a woman who love each other tenderly live in a village not far from Berlin. Building a peaceful life together, they are inseparable. The man, a volunteer fireman, goes away on a training trip with his fire brigade. One morning, he wakes up in the bed of an unknown woman; he drank too much the night before and has no recollection of what has happened. Even though he is still in love with his wife, he gets carried away in a passionate affair with this unknown woman from the city...
