The affluent lawyer Thomas Beck neglects his wife Irene in favour of work, and she embarks on a romance with a painter. Beck manages to prevent the pair from taking off to Vienna together, but in response, Irene throws herself wholeheartedly into Berlin’s nightlife. She carries on provocatively with a boxer, which ends in an attempted rape – and lands the Becks in divorce court. (Berlinale)
