Ingrid Cavens' first appearance on screen takes place in the cinephile milieu of Munich in the mid-1960s and references the role models of the Nouvelle Vague: the game of seduction, the relaxed tone, the city as a setting with its cafés, cinemas, and the pinball machine and jukebox featured in the film. It's about a marriage proposal to Sandra (Ingrid Caven), flippant remarks about marriage, and film criticism. “Criticism is a matter of morality,” agree two young critics chatting in front of a poster for Truffaut's La peau douce in the cinema foyer.
