Description

Two men, a cab driver and a salesman, find themselves with nothing to do on a Sunday in Berlin. The friends pick up a couple of young women, and the four spend the day wandering the city streets before heading to a beach in Wannsee, where they go swimming and enjoy an idyllic afternoon by the lake. The actors were amateurs whose day jobs were those that they portrayed in the film — the opening titles inform the audience that these actors have all returned to their normal jobs by the time of the film’s release in February 1930.
