Sinekatalog’s take
Edward Berger's drama follows an eleven-year-old Berlin boy who cares for his little brother while their mother parties, then searches for her. Ivo Pietzcker is superb in a tender, restless and honest portrait of childhood neglect.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
