Die Nichten der Frau Oberst / Guess Who's Coming for Breakfast (1968)
Comedy
Swiss producer/director Erwin C. Dietrich made this decent drama about a redhaired lady whose two young nieces are dealing with their sexuality as they romance several men around town and take to skinny dipping in the local lake. It's a pretty tasteful drama with enough of an interesting storyline to keep your interest.
