At the same time, Nic, the brothers’s 14-year-old sister, is also striving for her defloration by the young gangster Manu.
Reviews
On kino.de the film was described as a “poetic-grotesque family comedy about three siblings and their experiences with sex” and compared with Fickende Fisch that both works are proof “that German filmmakers can deal with pubescent sex adventures in style”. The Rhein-Zeitung saw the film as a “disrespectful puberty comedy” that deals with the first experiences of three siblings with love, sexuality and relationships with a “wink”.
Prisma was more critical: "Had he concentrated more on one person and not shot a portrait of all three siblings, the sometimes rather weird story might have been more complex."
