Rovinato! Kees Popinga è completamente rovinato, e a comunicarglielo è il suo stesso principale, poco prima di scomparire. Quale migliore occasione per darsi alla fuga e buttarsi alle spalle quarant'anni di noia e mediocrità. Un treno in partenza dalla stazione lo porterà a smettere i panni di cittadino esemplare e a cambiare vita, fino a trovarsi faccia a faccia con il suo destino. Versione integrale - Durata: 7h 18'

Die Reederfamilie Donadieu in La Rochelle hat ihr ganzes Denken und Handeln ihrer Firma untergeordnet. Dabei ist Verzicht des Einzelnen auf das eigene Glück geradezu Vorbedingung für den Geschäftserfolg. Bis einer von ihnen alles gefährdet.

On the shore of the Black Sea, on the edge of the Soviet Union, a little city has a new Turkish consul. Adil Bey - alone in an alien land - has taken the job after the mysterious death of his predecessor. Receiving only suspicion and hostility, he soon becomes reliant on his secretary, Sonia, for any taste of intimacy. They begin a quiet love affair, and from his window at the consulate, he watches her and her family go about their lives in the room across the way. But this is Stalin's world before the war, and nothing is as it seems. . . Georges Simenon's most starkly political work, The People Opposite is a tour de force of slow-burn tension and existentialist meditation.
