Reviews

"The film impressively shows Berlin's gay Turkish subculture."

- DVD & Video Report

“A partially lewd film that wants to set a monument to Berlin's homosexual subculture, but rather reinforces prejudices than dismantles them. In addition, he lacks a harmonious structure, convincing actors and artistic maturity. "

“From today's perspective, the film is perhaps too overloaded with its message. But it ran in the Panorama program of the Berlinale and received good reviews, which was certainly also due to the fact that at the time people were curious about the cultural coming-out of Turkish immigrant children , who told in films and texts about a world that the feature pages little about knew."
