Reviews
- kino.de: An attractively cast, staged and atmospheric contrast to the comedy territory often trodden by [Wortmann] .
- CINEMA: Transferring the episodic structure of the novel into a varied game with overlapping time levels and storylines, the film develops a complex mood of love and death in the big, gray city.
