I first saw this more than 20 years ago in a sneak preview. Otherwise I would have missed it. Even back then I wasn't a teenager anymore. And I never liked love stories anyway, not on screen and not in print. Especially not teenage love stories. But this was enchanting. The historical background (not so far back in 2001), the music, the sometimes dreamlike scenes - for me it was one of the most beautiful experiences in a cinema ever. Since then I have not met many people who have seen this movie, and some of them didn't like it. So? In my opinion one of the best German movies after WW 2. Here you have it.
