Фильм разделен на три части, и в каждой из них практически на один и тот же сценарий разыгрываются довольно разные истории. Хартли пытается сказать, что среда определяет смысл слов, как бы эмоционально эти слова не звучали. Так что в Нью-Йорке, Берлине, и Токио одни и те же слова приобретают свои краски, города преломляют диалог и сквозь неоновые огни Токио и Нью-Йорка перед нами вдруг отрывается калейдоскоп вербальных взаимотношений, даже если все что происходит — это просто флирт.
A somewhat impressionist, at times even slightly surreal miniature about a student (Werner Stocker in a splendid performance) who, out of financial difficulties, starts out as pool attendant at an open air swimming pool in Berlin's district of Neukölln. Escaping from his unpleasant landlord and his lover Patrizia (a very young Martina Gedeck), he soon starts to live at the baths, and as swimmers disappear and the baths are closed for the winter, he turns the grounds into his own, perfect refuge from civilisation and social pressure, becoming increasingly detached from reality. What may sound like an annoyingly gimmicky premise is executed here playfully, yet with admirable simplicity and a subtle, unpretentious poetic sensibility that one would wish for more often in contemporary German cinema.
At the end of the 1960s a young woman lays the foundation of the women's movement. As well as political initiatives against male dominance, a detailed picture is drawn of society, which establishes the women’s motivation.
