爱的寻觅剧情介绍

Years ago, Marlene left her husband Leonhard, a serious, strait-laced district judge, and became the lover of Leonhard's best friend Jan. It has taken a long time for the wounds to heal, but the trio has succeeded in restoring its friendship, even if it is more tenuous than in the past... Then Anja enters their lives, a darkly beautiful, mysterious young student. Leonhard, in particular, is fascinated by her and showers her with his attentions. Flattered, Anja develops a tender affection for Leonhard and, when he proposes to her, she accepts. They marry and have a child, Daniel.

Jan knows that deep within himself, he loves Marlene. And: he is frightened by Anja's erratic behavior, her possessive love that has assumed pathological traits. A love that threatens her sanity – and her life...
