8/10
Kusturica-lite at Lake Müggel
14 June 2022
This charmingly-silly film has a lot of in-jokes about Berlin rivalries, a bunch of absurdist random scenes, one superb single-take street-walk, a fantastic painterly image (you'll know which one when you see it, especially if you appreciate Kubrick's Barry Lyndon) and first-rate acting from all...we got here a rare likeable German slapstick.

I'm a Köpenicker myself so felt right at home, just not sure if outsiders could get into it. Even German non-Berliners will struggle with a lot of the humour as it's very localised.
