Vault Note

Proof that in 1979 Germany, growing up meant picking your own adventure—and maybe your own harem.

Programmer's Pick

Sex comedies don’t get much more European than this: inheritance, beach getaways, and a young woman juggling two admirers with a laissez-faire attitude. Add in 1970s German sexploitation style and a penchant for shared baths and you've got a bawdy, sun-kissed romp that's as cheeky as its title promises.

Synopsis

The story centers on a rather uninhibited young woman named Eva (Sabine Wollin) and her two boyfriends - Stefan (Ekkehardt Belle) and Claus (Claus Obalski). Eva needs to decide which of the two is to be her "steady". While pondering that question, Eva inherits some overseas properties from a rich uncle. The three of them embark on a world tour to exotic places, meeting up with Eva's cousin Britta (Gina Janssen) along the way. At the film's conclusion, Eva's "choice" is to keep both young men as beaus.
