Synopsis

Beautiful Women

Five beautiful women. Five talented actresses. One night and a thousand drinks.
They meet at a casting for a TV movie. At first they size each other up, but soon they start talking about the screenplay, about their reasons to act in the film, about their private lives.

By now they realize that none of them really wants the acting job, so they follow the spur of the moment and together they leave to escape their frustrations fo day.
Dana secretly kept pregnancy will soon unable her to work as an actress. Barbara is growing all the more suspicious that the man she loves will leave her. Kandis is having a complicated affair, while Geno likes women, which doesn´t make life easier for her. And yet none of them realizes the strong desperation that is leading Karin to an unforeseen and final decision. Somehow these five women are not able to break away from each other, so what started as a day-trip becomes a journey into the night. And in the course of this night, longings, hopes and fears are gradually revealed.
