I stumbled upon the film when I was visiting Berlin and a number of friends recommended it. What a privilege to see such a hip Berlin film in this amazing city. The movie felt authentic, full of wonderfully poignant observations, and I was by far not done befriending its characters when the film ended. I'm hoping for a sequel! The voice-over bookends worked so well and I kept thinking about "all stories are love stories" for the rest of the day. Clearly, as much as Berlin Am Meer reflects the city's "so Berlin" flair and temperament, I think the themes are universal and translate to anyplace. I was particularly impressed by Claudius Franz, as Mitsch, and of course the beautiful Jana Pallaske, as Margarete. This girl rocks! I loved the cool score and went to your MySpace page for more. Well done!
