action

Anne Braun is a young non-Jewish woman who has a passion for Judaism and who specializes in Jewish literature with her bookstore. She also does volunteer work in a Jewish retirement home and supports the Jewish author Schlomo Wisniewski. While Anne's grandparents made their fortune by trading in the valuables of their Jewish fellow human beings during World War II , Anne's parents took over the art and antiques trade without questioning where their inherited wealth came from. Anne feels it is her duty to work off the bad karma of her family and wants to make amends.

Anne also desperately wants a Jewish friend. In order to impress Anne, the young surgeon Daniel poses as a Jew at a party with Anne's friend Laura and his best friend and Jewish doctor colleague Tobias. As a result, Anne and Daniel become a couple. Daniel's little swindle becomes a web of white lies that he can no longer find out. He hopes that in the end Anne will love him for who he is.

reception

Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv called the film a romantic comedy with a socio-political subtext. Charging the RomCom standards explicitly with philosemitism - and implicitly with the anti-Semitism issue, which unfortunately has become topical again , works extremely well. But even without the political added value, the film is a very splendid comedy. The film has wit, irony, drive, and the dialog changes are delicious.

Eric Leimann compared the film in the Weser Kurier with Everything on Sugar! (2004). There are not many German comedies that play with Jewish culture in a sovereign and funny way; too many faux pas could stand in the way of success. Even if nice mess is not on everything on sugar! the film turned out to be a very successful romantic comedy. The dialogues would sit well and Verena Altenberger's enchanting play stood out from the overall very well-presented acting ensemble. The film is also not only romantic and funny, but also a wonderfully casual narrative against cultural clichés and hasty judgments.
