Reviews

"Atmospherically dense milieu and social study, which, however, is dramaturgically insecure and leaves an ambivalent impression: the people are cynically portrayed as types and thus exposed to laughter."

"How long it has been since a German debut film touched and grabbed me like Uwe Schrader's Kanakerbraut, I don't remember."

"Direction, actors (Peter Franke as Paul, Brigitte Janner as Lisa, Gerd Olschewski as representative) and, above all, the hand-held camera, which Klaus Müller-Laue confidently and unobtrusively controls, achieves an intensity and liveliness that has become rare in German cinemas."

- HG Pflaum, Süddeutsche Zeitung , April 3, 1984

"In fact, however, Schraders Kanakerbraut signals, perhaps, hope for a really new German film."

- Rainer Weber, Der Spiegel , February 6, 1984

“With the film Kanakerbraut, the Berlin film scene has presented a very promising new talent: Uwe Schrader. [...] a well-crafted, professional work. "

- Ron Holloway, Variety , December 7, 1983

“Beyond the smooth courtesy that is common in today's cinema, there is the realm of the carefree. Where it is productive, i.e. has a style, like in this film, it develops an intensity that occasionally turns into poetry. "

- Norbert Grob, Die Zeit , November 25, 1983

"The reduction of the characters to their typical places him in the tradition of great realistic films such as Lionel Rogoshin's ' On The Bowery ' and Martin Scorsese's ' Mean Streets - Hexenkessel '."

- Andreas Kilb, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung , March 23, 1984

"Uwe Schrader has presented an astonishing, very sensitive first film, [...] made a vital, rousing film about a simple, depressing story that does not drive the viewer out of the cinema into depression, but rather inconspicuously and inconspicuously gives them food for thought."

- Bernd Lubowski, Hamburger Abendblatt , February 10, 1984

“Uwe Schrader does not denounce, does not teach. His study of the milieu is full of compassionate poetry of sadness. "

- Angie Dullinger, Abendzeitung , March 30, 1984

“His hero Paul (Peter Franke) - a sensational drama discovery for the cinema. [...] A small, dirty, extremely beautiful and haunting film. [...] Scorsese on Berlin pavement - that is still there in German films. "

- Hans-Ulrich Pönack, tip , 24/83

"Kanakerbraut [...] is a sensitive, gripping description of the state, neither a peepshow flap nor a moralizing pointing finger."

“It doesn't often happen that a German film gets a grip on a piece of reality as closely and directly as Uwe Schrader did with his debut film. [...] A really big little film. "

- Frauke Hanck, tz , March 31, 1984

"How Schrader paints the picture of these people with feeling and knowledge, devoid of any fear of contact and sometimes almost documentarily, without letting the viewer sink into hopelessness, is rare in German film."

- Danielle Krüger, Hamburger Rundschau , February 9, 1984

"Brigitte Janners (Lisa) and Peter Frankes (Paul) [...] style of representation that touches the border area between reality and fiction as artistically as one rarely experiences."

"[...] Schrader not only succeeds in describing the milieu with oppressive authenticity and loving solidarity, he also and above all shows a more than happy hand in the choice and management of actors."

- Alfred Holighaus, Filmecho , November 11, 1983

“Unpretentious, tender and laconic, he tells the story with excellent equipment, in which everything from the nicotine finger to the home furnishings is really right. […] The wonderful thing about this film, however, is that it manages to tell a normally sad story without releasing the viewer from the cinema completely exhausted. [...] With only 30,000 DM, inflated from 16 to 35 mm, filmed with a handheld camera, I consider it to be one of the best new German films this year! Just go in there. "

- Renee Zucker, Die Tageszeitung , November 21, 1983
