Film description
The film's title refers to the brightest star in Scorpio - the astrological sign associated with passion, sexuality, jealousy and force. Appropriately, the film is about the extremes of joy and anguish to which love can lead. Alex and Nicole are divorced, but Alex cannot let go of what is past; Sonja is facing tough times because of her pregnancy and becoming wildly jealous of her husband Marco; while Eva, a loyal wife and mother, has her life turned upside down by a fling with Tomasz. In telling the stories of three couples, Spielmann explores the forces beyond sexual attraction that bring people together.
