A man and two women are trying their luck in the red room in the countryside. The older (but therefore not wiser) Fred, freshly divorced as a kisser who still desires his ex, meets the self-confident Lucy, who feels called to explore the soul of men in her novels. She lives with her intimate friend Sibil in a Vorpommern house in the countryside. Fred decides to move from Berlin to the two women and try a ménage-à-trois. They get to know each other and themselves.
Directed by Rudolf Thome, The Red Room leans on a strong ensemble — Katharina Lorenz, Seyneb Saleh, Peter Knaack — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
