Reviews
“From all the different genres of this German competition, we decided on a film for the main prize that particularly touched us with its approach. A film that doesn't make it easy for its viewers and a film that hasn't made it easy for its makers either. How far can you go when, as a filmmaker, you find the subject of your film in the closest surroundings and where are the limits for turning off the camera? The director of this film showed a home video of relentless intimacy in the competition. A home video that pushes the limits of documentary film. Thirty-nine kilos is the dream weight of the anorexic girl, whom the director portrayed from close family circle in his film. "
