Seesterne

From Johann Alexander Hübler-Kahla

WithEva Kerbler, Franz Meßner, Edith Prager, Karl Skraup, Richard Eybner, Walter Regelsberger

Year1952

Duration94min.

LanguageGerman

Peter, a young draughtsman, falls in love with Anna, a worker who runs the Seesterne swimming club in her spare time and is preparing a big performance. The general manager of her company, which produces fabrics, patronises the revue dancer Susi, who exploits his affection to get ahead herself. Meanwhile, Peter tries to provide the starfish with training and performance opportunities. When he falls, the creative non-swimmer fantasises himself into a legendary underwater city, in which, however, quite profane relationships between powerful profiteers and their subordinates prevail ... This revue film, which indulges in glorious screen excess, flopped with the critics and at the box office - a rediscovery - shown by a true-colour unique copy!
