Searching round for titles that I could give as an X-Mas gift to a friend,I stumbled upon a title starring Dagmar Lassander.With having recently read an interview with Lassander in an excellent issue of UK magazine The Dark Side,I felt that it was the perfect time to discover how much of a nymphomaniac Lassander could become.

The plot:

Picking up furniture for the new house where she lives with her husband of 5 years, Andrea notices a mirror.Picking up the mirror,Andrea begins to remember a similar mirror that was in her family's mansion.

Years earlier:

Waiting for the family mansion to be taken off her name,(after the tragic death of her dad)Andrea finds herself developing an urge to have various one night stands.Leaving her wealthy,elite background behind,Andrea begins to walk down a seedy path,as she attempts to quench her insatiable thirst.

View on the film:

Featuring a dazzling psychedelic breakdown as its mid-section set piece,writer/director Hans Schott-Schöbinger superbly uses Andrea's mirrored memories to give the film a reflected appearance,as Schöbinger shows Andrea to hate the reflections that she sees in the mirror.Whilst he fails to delve deep into Andrea sudden lustful desires, Schöbinger takes a clever anthology-style approach with the screenplay,thanks to Schöbinger having Andrea spend 10 minutes with one man,and then moving onto the next one,who are each stitched together by a thread,where one is seedier than the man who proceeded him.

Giving Andrea a real sensuality,the gorgeous Dagmar Lassander (who also appears naked in the film) delivers an excellent performance,with Lassander giving Andrea a raw sexual bite,whilst also displaying some unexpected weakness,as Andrea looks deep into the fractured mirror.
