Sisters, or The Balance of Happiness (1979)

Sisters Maria and Anna live together. Maria is a most proficient executive secretary, encouraging Anna to finish her studies and start a career. Anna broods, threatens to quit university, takes pills, and keeps a diary. When Maria's relationship with Maurice, the son of her boss, starts to lead to love, Anna takes a selfish and drastic step that plummets Maria into solitude. No longer able to connect with Maurice, Maria does establish a relationship with Miriam, a typist at her office who becomes a surrogate younger sister. But Maria is intrusive as well as helpful.

Psychologically involving film that illuminates the thin line between love and manipulation

Bob M 29 Jun 2007

Flickster only lists one perfect Margarethe Von Trotta film but she directed four in a row; The Loat Honour of Katharina Blum (1975), The Second Awakening of Christa Klages (1977) Sisters..(1979) and Marianne and Juliane (1981). See one you want to see all of these classic German films. These are powerfully political movies that tell an intimate story well while exploring the complex nature of relationships between women. Sisters features two successful sisters with destructive sibling rivalry. Von Trotta followed it up with Marianne and Julianne in 1981, in which one of two German sisters is a terrorist. In all four of the films mentioned above sbe tells a straightforward story while exploring the nature of women's relationships more seriously than any other director of the time period. The films hold up well, resonating for years after viewing.
