as Chauffeur

Walter Bergmann has, as they say, made it. He is a successful, respected middle-aged businessman, married with one daughter. One day he has to travel to the North Sea island of Sylt for a conference. Once there, his life, which is characterized by correctness, conventions and formalities, soon goes upside down. Sin lurks everywhere - parties, pretty girls, and sexual debauchery in the sand. The always serious man immediately falls in love with a statuesque, blonde beauty named Renate, whom he had already met on the outbound flight and who could very well be his daughter. In the face of these temptations, Bergmann's world begins to totter. So far, with a suit, tie and handkerchief, the prime example of the bourgeois philistine, for him the amusing artist scene, into which the sensual, promiscuous Renate introduces him, is like immersing himself in a sensual world completely unknown to him. But Walter has to quickly realize that he cannot keep up with the basic libertine views of these young people and that he cannot be so physically relaxed. When one day he has to discover Renate in bed with one of her various lovers, Walter realizes that her view of life and the sexual ease of her clique will never correspond to his principles. Remorseful and converted, Bergmann flies back to his wife and child.
