Noble Commitments

Original title: Standesgemäß

2008 · 1 h 27 · Germany · German

  • Documentary

Three noble single women live between traditional demands and everyday life, between a castle and a prefabricated building, torn apart by their parents' expectations and their own deeply internalised demands. They are outsiders in the microcosm of the German aristocracy. If they want to continue to belong to the aristocracy, they have to marry an aristocratic man or stay single, because within the aristocracy the "male principle" applies.
