Synopsis [spoilers]: The fim narrates the struggle for survival of a young woman, Anita, in West Germany. She fled East Germany for better chances in the West, but soon got involved in petty thefts which give her a jail conviction. She is released on parole, but keeps getting into trouble. She becomes the mistress of an important government member, but the affair doesn't last long. She is wanted by the police again, and decides to turn herself in (she is pregnant).
Appraisal: Interesting film which succeeds at expressing a strong sense of isolation of a problematic individual in a capitalistic society; the exact nature of the events is not easy to follow at times though.
