The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。影片讲述了一对双胞胎姐妹的故事。姐妹二人有着截然相反的性格和爱好。姐姐专注于学习，成绩优异，但是不善言谈。妹妹重视个性发展，目标是成为选美冠军。一次偶然的巧合让姐妹二人互换身份。两人将如何应对这个巨大的挑战？姐妹两个由最开始的互相仇视到后来惺惺相惜，是共同的遭遇和磨难让二人更加珍惜彼此，也让她们更好地学会宽容和体谅。。
