criticism
“The dramatic (television) film with plenty of room for humor and (self-) irony demonstrates how much strife with fate can obscure one's view of true values. Well played, with differently drawn figures and lifelike dialogues, convince above all through the atmospheric gray and intermediate tones of a creeping alienation. "
