Film Synopsis
Leni Gruyten's life has been as turbulent and unpredictable as her own wayward character.
To save her from the Nazis, Leni, a bourgeois Jew living in Germany, is placed in the
care of a convent of nuns. During the war, she has an affair with her cousin, who
is later shot for refusing to join the German army. She then meets Boris,
a Russian prisoner-of-war who works in a cemetery - another affair that is destined
to end badly...
Science-fiction came into its own in B-movies of the 1950s, but it remains a respected and popular genre, bursting into the mainstream in the late 1970s.
