Secret in the Mountain

Hamburg, mid 80s, ALEX is a cabby. The sound is hard, pubs are dark and loud, people constantly argue about anything and everything, people smoke all the time, and not just cigarettes. Alex wants love and freedom and sleeps with DIETRICH. It's far from being love, but the sex is okay. With MARC, a little person full of dignity, she finds more than that. The rest is struggles with her passengers, the indifferent and the doomed, brutes as other nuisances. This sort of life could go on and on, Alex could drive away from her own life and in doing so lose Marc and not getting rid of Dietrich. Wouldn't there be a small monkey with the same invincible desire for freedom as hers.

Less than rating 6? C'mon! No way! Good movie!

The bad ratings of this pleasant German film are just nonsense. Despite not being a big budget production, it is qiite nice, visually interesting, with good actors (not only alwaye awesome Peter Dinklage), and excellent dialiogs. Just ignore the haters and watch it.
