Ferdinand is bored with his monotonous life in Parisian high society and embarks on an adventure with his ex-girlfriend Marianne. Together, they escape the big-city bourgeoisie and, after an adventurous journey, go into hiding on an island in the south of France. But it doesn't take long for Marianne to get bored of this dropout life in sunny idylls, too. She runs away, dragging both Ferdinand and herself into ruin.

This winter semester we have once again decided against a leitmotif, against a red thread and against drawers. Our pigeonhole, red thread and leitmotif this semester will once again be the diversity of cinema. Let's look together through a realm that could not be more different and yet always has one thing in common: our view of it. We hope that was profound enough, and now enjoy the film!
