Synopsis:
A woman speaks roughly 20,000 words a day. A man might respond with an emphatic grunt while focusing on the sports broadcast. Since the dawn of mankind evolution has conspired to uphold the insurmountable differences amongst the genders. What happened?

Let's take a look at two examples: Jan (BENNO FUERMANN) is a successful lawyer, athletic, a sports fan and a womanizer. Katrin (JESSICA SCHWARZ) is a drop-dead gorgeous career woman and a hopeless romantic. They could be the perfect couple were it not for a few obstacles. Jan cannot resist even the most primitive sexual stimuli -- like his secretary Angie's (NADJA BECKER) plunging neckline. Katrin, who is so clearly capable of higher intellect, has no resistance to alpha male Jonathan's (UWE OCHSENKNECHT) shameless sexual advances.

It is clear that both genders display vastly different emotions when faced with the same situation. But a modern environment and common sense has not brought change to our most primal behavioral patterns. Which beckons the question: Have we learned nothing?

Welcome to WHY MEN DON'T LISTEN AND WOMEN CAN'T READ MAPS! This film will educate you on all the misunderstandings and misconceptions that seemingly plague every male and female relationship. Thanks to modern evolutionary biology and behavioral research we can explore the reasons behind the age old question why men and women are such opposites. And you will see that sometimes the only difference between modern man and our caveman ancestors is what we choose to wear...
