Plot Summary:
"Schöne Frauen“ handelt genau davon: von schönen Frauen. Fünf Schauspielerinnen finden sich nacheinander zum Casting für einen Fernsehfilm ein. Sie schweigen, taxieren sich, begutachten sich und ihre Gegenüber. Und kommen sich mitnichten näher. Das Casting allerdings, das findet einfach nicht statt. Irgendwo hinter einer unheilvoll dräuenden Tür müßte sich zwar das Filmteam befinden, aber aus unerfindlichen Gründen wird keine der fünf hineingerufen. Die fünf beginnen, sich zu unterhalten. Erst zögernd, dann offener. Tauschen sich über das betreffende Drehbuch aus, über ihre berufliche Situation, über ihr Privatleben. Jede von ihnen hat einleuchtende Gründe, die Rolle bekommen zu müssen. Aber irgendwann stellt sich auch heraus: Keine von ihnen hat Lust, in diesem Film zu spielen. Also folgen sie einem spontanen Impetus - und gehen. Alle bis auf eine.
