The Fruit Is Ripe (de|'''Griechische Feigen'''|translation=Greek Figs) is a 1977 German softcore erotic comedy film directed by Sigi Rothemund.
Patricia (Betty Vergès) is a young woman from a wealthy family in Greece who is bound to Munich for college. At the airport, she gives away her ticket and instead begins to hitchhike around Greece by automobile and boat in a journey of self-discovery. In the course of her travels, she becomes an object of desire. She's pursued by several suitors, but she turns them all down until she falls for Tom (Claus Richt), a sailor with whom she tours the Aegean. Tom leaves her after a fight, but eventually comes back to her.
