Goofs
When Tom and Alma visit her father, sister and nephew, they talk about childhood memories from holidays on the island of Rømø, specifically the community of Kongsmark. At the end of the film, when Alma finds Tom, she apparently had taken the ferry from Rostock to Gedser (Falster island), to drive to the island of Lolland, and find him there. Lolland is located in the Baltic Sea, whereas Rømø is located in the North Sea.

Quotes
Alma: They test me, scan my brain, give me non-stop surveys, then they feed those things with so-called mind files from 17 million people: traits, views, feelings... It's super complex, and God knows how much it costs. And what's the result? "Your eyes are like two mountain lakes I could sink into."

Top review

7/10

A mixed bag, but generally enjoyable...

An ancient language researcher agrees to host an artificial life form for three weeks, in order to access whether or not they would make ideal romantic partners. The film bounces between rom-com tropes and interesting poetic philosophy. It is a mixed bag, but generally enjoyable. I especially liked the two lead performances.
