The movie is about the sadness and emptiness of old age, the confrontation of sexual lust with the semiotic world of substitutes, a movie about a transition on whose one end is, in the case of the main character Edmond, played by Glowna himself, the sum of a still ongoing successful life, and on whose other end there is the eternal relapse into silence. In reality, the movie follows exactly the intentions of the director (whose statements can be read, if one can read, in the specials of the one and only international DVD version existing).
Leading American film critics whose voices are listened to, and, worse, whose opinions are believed, have condemned "Das Haus Der Schlafenden Schönen" (2000), directed by Vadim Glowna, as a filthy concoction even repugnant for dirty little old men.
