Synopsis
- »Götz Friedrich's direction walks a tightrope between a cast of psychologically realistic characters and an environment bursting with symbolism, in which the menace and utopian possibilities of a common weal are reflected. Few are the directors today who can tell a story in a way that is comprehensible but not superficial, who can scrutinise and define temporality and immediacy in people and the human condition.« [1993, Welt am Sonntag]
