Angst essen Seele auf

BR Deutschland 1973/1974 Spielfilm

Fears Eats the Soul

Sixty-year-old Emmi has three grown children and works as a housekeeper to supplement her retirement check. She meets and falls in love with young Moroccan man named Ali. When they decide to marry, everything and everyone turns against them. Even Emmi′s own children want nothing more to do with their mother - until they find out about Ali′s impressive savings. But when the external pressure eases up, the pressure increases between Emmi and Ali, who ultimately feels drawn to another woman.
