Reviews

“Everything is a stage, everything lights up, everywhere only well-formed, female bodies, money makes you worry-free and produces even more money. The dark, other side of this glamorous life - the loneliness in abundance, the inability to love constantly - only penetrates sporadically and is quickly driven away. […] The Look of Love is never and nobody is concerned with a penetrating gaze, rather all glances are superficial ones that do not question the illusion but rather contribute to its internalization in the protagonists' self. "
