Very lively, very tragic, the new German Cinema is coming of age., 14 October 2004
7/10
Author: fedtho from Geneva, Switzerland

I gave it a 7, but almost an eight when I saw it didn't reach that very average.

Katharina Schüttler is so huge as main character (she's 25 years old)I thought about Hanna Shygulla (R.W.Fassbinder's fetish actress), the comparison is by no means far-fetched.

The film is very well done, in the reality-drama genre, which is a difficult one as everything seems to have been done in that field. It makes plenty of room for the incredible actress (I understand it has been written with her in mind), but all other parts are excellent as well.

It's no happy movie, Sophie's destiny gets more terrible as time goes by. (So: not to watch if you're feeling down...)

But a very reassuring sign that Germany is beginning to have a Cinema and a generation of directors and actors/actresses that want to do tell stories in today's world, and who seem more and more capable to!
