Notes
Some reviewers have suggested that this film is the German Brokeback Mountain. I'm not sure about that, but a teenage coming of age story with a fairy-tale ending it is not. Overall, excellent acting and believable plot. More-or-less satisfying ending given the complexity of the relationships. I wonder where Marc, Kay and Bettina will be five years from now. I liked it.
