“A film of great emotions without pathos. Anke Engelke and Ulrich Tukur deliver authentic, pure, and unpretentious performances, with a rare restraint that truly gets under your skin. A film that doesn't need to shout to linger long after.”

“Thank you, Anke! A truly wonderful autumn film!”

“With great authenticity and sensitivity. A quiet, touching homage to love.”

“What makes this film so deeply affecting is not only the keenly observant direction, but also Anke Engelke and Ulrich Tukur, who allow the audience to come incredibly close.”

“Anke Engelke and Ulrich Tukur are in top form in this delicately crafted film. Those who open themselves to its quiet tones will be richly rewarded.”
