A Woman Needs Loving

A Woman Needs Loving (German: Eine Frau sucht Liebe) is a 1969 West German drama film directed by Robert Azderball and starring Eva Renzi, Horst Janson and Barbara Rütting. The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert Stratil. Although produced on a comparatively low budget, it was marketed in a way that anticipated the exploitation films of the early 1970s rather than the New German Cinema.
