DER BEGINN ALLER SCHRECKEN IST LIEBE is dedicated to the seemingly extremely personal realm of such big feelings as jealousy and love. Freya and Irmtraut no longer have to fight for their economic independence or the compatibility of career, political commitment, and motherhood. But as the two friends compete for the same man, outdated gender cliches begin to rear their head again. Romantic ideas, role-specific behavior, and female solidarity are all put to the test in ironic fashion.
