Love of the Loveless
The film is about two opposing poles of love - the darwinistic rules of a merciless battlefield of attractiveness on the one hand and the hope for a love strong enough to exist beyond these borders on the other.
The two main characters, opposite as well in their appearance as in their attitude towards life, seem not to have anything in common except maybe for their loneliness.
They meet in a modern fitness resort, as trainer and trainee...
The cynical personal trainer Inez turns the pragmaticly naive Ulrich, who is searching for a „true love“ to release him from his sufferings, into a tool of her self-hatred.
An evening in the hotel`s discotheque leads to the escalation Inez has been aiming for.
So, how much humiliation can Ulrich cope with?
