She, a woman of exquisite beauty, of classical dignity and harmonious Raphaelesque proportions decided one sunny winter day to leave La Rotonda... She purchased a ticket of no return to Berlin-Tegel. She wanted to forget her past, or rather to abandon it like a condemned house. She wanted to concentrate all her energies on one thing, something all her own. To follow her own destiny at last was her only desire. Berlin, a city in which she was a complete stranger, seemed just the place to indulge her passion undisturbed. Her passion was alcohol, she lived to drink and drank to live, the life of a drunkard. (Moscow International Film Festival)
