Ödipussi

Paul Winkelmann (Loriot) runs a successful business in Hamburg, yet his 78-year-old mother still treats him like a child and cannot understand why he has taken an apartment of his own. Then he meets Margarethe Tietze (Evelyn Hamann), a psychologist whose own relationship with her parents is no easier. Loriot writes, directs and stars, and the film keeps asking how much of a grown person still belongs to a mother and father.
