Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Elke Sommer stars in this experimental film from director Bastian Cleve. A citizen from Germany arrives in Hollywood, leading to an interview with Sommer. He tries unsuccessfully to pick up a black woman while roller-skating near the beach then calls home from Death Valley to explain that he will not be returning to Germany. His experiences are often surrealistic, as the gritty reality of life in Southern California collides with the exotic images made popular in films.
