Ku'damm 56 – Rebel with a Cause

Monika reveals to her mother and sister that Joachim Franck raped her on the night of the wedding. But when Caterina—who hopes to snag a second son-in-law on the cheap—goes to the Francks’ house to demand compensation, the young man accuses his victim of throwing herself at him. With her mother once again turning against her, Monika fears the worst… The support of Fritz Assmann, a close family friend who assists Caterina at the dance school, prevents the young woman from doing something she’ll regret forever. He intercedes so that Monika, an excellent dancer, is assigned to teach the beginners’ class. This allows her to see Freddy regularly, and one evening he invites her to join him at the rock club he frequents.
