JULIETTA

Category: Edition 2002

Synopsis
Julietta, daughter of a wealthy Stuttgart family goes to Berlin for the Love Parade with her boyfriend, Jiri, a Berlin medical student. The two are lost sight of the delirious crowd and Julietta wanders until collapses exhausted by fatigue and the effect of drugs that has taken. The girl is rescued by Max, a DJ, who, fascinated by her beauty and confused by drugs makes love with her still unconscious. After six weeks Julietta discovers she is pregnant and returns to Berlin to talk with Jiri. As he searches for it in vain he meets Max who, once again, seems to be his guardian angel. Between the two grows an irresistible attraction but the girl seems determined to ignore the thing. Finally he finds his boyfriend again and reveals his condition to him. At the beginning Jiri seems shocked by the news but then accepts the paternity with joy. But Max can not rest and confesses that the child could be his.
