Original Title

Agnes und Seine Brüder
  • Director: Oskar Roehler

CGiii Comment

A putrid politician, a licentious librarian and a troubled transsexual - all brothers.

It is excruciating to watch - really, life cannot be this agonising. Roehler may have taken the dysfunction a little too far.

It may be beyond belief...but, it is really rather fascinating to watch.

There are too many unacceptable edits...then, there is one that will blow your mind.

There is talent on the screen - a little fine-tuning behind the camera and Roehler may make a fine future film.

The(ir) Blurb...

This drama focuses on three very different siblings, all searching for happiness. Hans-Jörg is a sex addicted librarian, who is interested in young students. Werner is a successful politician with a dysfunctional family. Agnes, a transsexual, works as a table dancer in a nightclub. The three brothers just have one thing in common: their longing for a happy life...
