Cum on the food and I'll eat it. WTF?
Was this supposed to symbolize something or are they just that casual about these kinds of sex acts in Germany? There's always those jokes about sick twisted German porn and who can forget the following German commercial.

Felt it was a commentary on how decadent Europeans are becoming these days. Like DSK propositioning the maid in a NY hotel. We see decadence throughout the movie. People are uncaring about others for the most part, and narcissistically all wrapped into themselves. Even a nice get-together can't simply be that. They have to have a "car party" and ingest illegal drugs. Ines works and works, but never enjoys her life, nor gives any enjoyment to others. Her poor assistant is so desperate for even just a little feedback she is willing to get naked. Not surprising they're beyond the capability of having normal sex as well.
And I almost forgot to mention being in the business of making it easier for other companies to lay off their workers.
Europeans are a diverse bunch. I doubt we'll ever see an italian movie like this one, for instance. I'd say that the movie is a commentary on how decadent germans are becoming these days, and wouldn't generalize their behavior beyond a few western european nations.
shareSure, wherever it applies. The definition of Europe is quite nebulous anyway.
But don't you think the recent Italian "remake" of La Dolce Vita -- sorry that I don't recall the title at the moment -- is also something of a commentary on decadence in Italia?
