Motivational Growth

Summary Ian Folivor, a depressed and reclusive 30-something, finds himself taking advice from a growth in his bathroom after a failed suicide attempt. The Mold, a smooth talking fungus who was born of the filth collecting in a corner of Ian's neglected bathroom, works to win Ian's trust by helping him clean himself up and remodel his lifestyle. With The Mold's help, Ian attracts the attention of a neighbor he's been ogling through his peephole, Leah, and he manages to find a slice of happiness despite his unnatural circumstances. But Ian starts to receive strange messages from his old and broken down TV set that make him realize that The Mold may not be as helpful as it seems to be, and strange characters combined with stranger events cast Ian's life in the shadow of an epic battle between good and evil that Ian is only partially aware of.

Bedtime Stories for Grownups

Bedtime Stories for Grownups

Peter brings his new girlfriend Anja (Sonja Jeannine) up to C. von Ficker's (i.e. Fucker's) flat, but their tryst is repeatedly disturbed by various events in the building. To calm the jittery Anja, Peter relates a series of erotic stories to put her back in the mood: Scene 1: Ingrid (Ulrike Butz) is hanging out with her friends at a bar, gets a bit drunk and picks up by a fast-moving Lothario who deflowers her. Although she regrets her first-time choice, she's now obsessed with getting enjoyment from sex. A series of men prove unable to satisfy her, but when her friend Lilo (Puppa Armbruster) drops in for a sleep-over, she finally experiences the physical release shes been seeking! Not yet ready to give up on men, Ingrid initiates our inexperienced protagonist, Peter, and finds him to be a considerate and satisfying lover. Scene 2: Next is a lederhosen tale involving the buxom Maria (Jane Iwanoff) who is having it off with her beau, Toni, when they're interrupted by her grandfather. Toni wants to make an honest woman of Maria -- but his father is against it. Wiley old gramps knows Aloisius is boffing all the wives in town, including Maria's mother (Elke Deuringer). He and Toni don't have to wait long to catch him in the act, and blackmail him into approving the union. Scene 3: Professor Staudinger conducts an art class in which one of his students shows promise, so he invites her to a private class in which he poses nude, then quickly seduces the girl. She later interrupts the satyr holding an orgy with his three muses, and bolts in disgust. Outside she meets the professor's son, they hit it off and get married. But her desire for approval brings her back for another private lesson with the professor, and back on her back. Will she ever find the willpower to end her sessions with the manipulative professor? Scene 4: Ennio the pizza-maker is hot to make it with young Drena, a virginal girl whose mother warns her repeatedly about going all the way. One evening they're into some heavy petting in Ennio's car when it accidentally slips out of gear, crashes into a wall, and causes Ennio to inadvertently penetrate little Drena's holy of holies. What the heck -- might as well enjoy it! "Whats done is done!" Scene 5: Otto Hicks is a private dick. He's entertaining Margit (Eva Gross), his partner's wife, when his partner unexpectedly returns with a client. As Hicks and Margit watch from the safety of a handy storage closet, Oskar enthusiastically interviews his new client -- until Hick's wife (Judith Fritsch) makes an untimely appearance! Into the closet with the client -- just in time for Mrs. Hicks to mount Oskar. Since his wife is banging away in the other room, Otto figures he might as well make use of the willing woman he's closeted with. Unfortunately, their vigorous love-making alerts Mrs. Hicks, and the jig's up for everyone! To add insult to injury, their willing new client is a professional masseuse, and her bill for the office visit comes in at a cool 1.000 Marks! Peter's stories restore Anja's mood, and despite continued mayhem in the building, they're able to finish what they set out to do in Herr Ficker's flat!
