Monika (Judith Fritsch) gets thrown out of her apartment by her
landlady because she is caught having sex with the landlady's son. Looking
for an apartment, she meets photographer Alexander, for whom she not only
poses for nudes, she also falls in love with him and helps him in a
blackmailing scheme. However, when she wants him to get her pregnant, he
turns her down, so she drugs him and ties him to his bed to have her way
with him. She doesn't get pregnant though, he only throws her out. Monika
returns to the country to work at her father's as a nurse. There she meets
Michael, who immediately falls in love with her but is incredibly shy.
That said though, he is also a porn director, and soon gets her a starring
role in one of his films. Eventually, Monika and Michael marry, but their
honeymoon becomes a disaster culminating in him walking out on her. Monika
meets Michael again, who now agrees to marry her and have children with
her, and the rest of their lives they shag and shag, even after death in
their coffin, and even their skeletons can't keep their hands from one
another. Typical German language softcore sex comedy from the
1970's, this film isn't so much carried by an actual story but presents
the audience with a series of vignettes, usually culminating in a sex
scene. The good thing about Monique is there is not too much
slapstick in this one, which often tends to wreck German-language sex
comedies, but that's not to say this film is particularly funny ...
actually it isn't, it's just another typical genre effort which you might
find cute in a nostalgic way but might have forgotten in a day or two.
Only the scene with the shagging skeletons in the end shows some spark of
creativity, but that's already too little too late.
