Hansel and Gretel Lost in the Forest
At the beginning of the film, a voice from the off declares that the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel had been mistakenly intended for the children, but has now finally been prepared as a moral eater for adolescents. Hansel and Gretel have known each other for nine weeks now. Now they go on a holiday together, but they constantly argue because he wants to, but they don't. In the forest, they are surprised by an attractive red-haired castle owner, who invites them to their home. Because she always walks around with an open blouse, the sex witch quickly manages to lure the naive and vain boy into her bed. Meanwhile, after Gretel had been raped by a disgusting lockservant by a hair, she puts an end to the evil hustle and bustle by throwing herself naked at her hansel's neck. The disempowered witch, however, is furious lynotated about her circus menagerie of lions, tigers and polar bears to eat.
