Mädchen am Sonntag plot
'Mädchen am Sonntag' is a portrait of four young German actresses; Laura Tonke, Nicolette Krebitz, Katharina Schüttler and Inga Birkenfeld. They are part of a new group of young actresses who are trying to practice their passion for movies away from the mainstream TV market. Between naivety and experience, wishes and will, they talk about their work. They talk about theatre, about the myths of the cinema and the magic of making the first film. They show how one must become stubborn and uncompromising to avoid getting lost in the demands of today's media. Their individuality and their will to remain independent is what makes them so interesting. Their happiness, fears and goals are also discussed.
