Hanna Schygulla stars in this bleak Fassbinder drama as Effi Briest, a tomboyish seventeen year-old German girl living with her parents. Though simple, Effi still has some social ambition, ambition that causes her to accept a proposal of marriage fromBaron Geert Von Instetten, a Prussian diplomat who is much older than Effi. Unfortunately, neither the Baron's family nor anyone in the secluded town she now calls home accept Effi as an equal. Starved for companionship and finding none from her busy husband, Effi begins an innocent friendship with a well-known womanizer that may jeopardize even her tenuous position as the Baron's wife.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull FrameAudio: Mono - GermanInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive MenusText/Photo Galleries: Production Notes FilmographiesDVD-ROM Features: Web Links
