Fools’ Outing

Bernd is traveling with his wife through the Black Forest in Germany. Ellen’s psychiatrist had suggested that this trip would help both of them psychologically. He was wrong. Her erratic behavior on this outing makes Bernd realize that he will have to leave her, if he is to save himself and their two young children from the emotional terror she has been inflicting upon them. For too long he has played the role of supporting husband, careful not to tear the mask off Ellen’s face, he tells her psychiatrist, whereas she has no problem exposing him for his presumed inability to understand her.
