There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

One of the best films I have ever seen. Simply beautiful story of love and loss. I found the setting in the country side delightful and poignant as it brought the earthy reality of life and death together as they belong.The humour is very good - not overdone and very delightfully distracts you from what could otherwise be considered a tragedy - instead it a a beautiful portrayal of life.Jördis Triebel portrays the country spinster so well and so cleverly. Her motorised bike rides are simply hilarious. While Jürgen Vogel is very believable in a difficult role.If you get the chance watch this film - you won't be disappointed.

What a sweet sweet movie - I started watching this film around ten minutes into it for which I am grateful as I have a feeling if I had started it from the beginning I may not have had the inclination to view it ... As i was at home with a remote never far away from my hand ... The first scenes earlier in the piece felt slightly familiar which I found very curious so I guess there was my hook... Then one meets Emma - which to me was so reminiscent of my childhood story heroine (although not Swedish) Pippi Longstocking only she was all grown up ... And that moment stayed with me throughout the whole film xxx this was a truly memorable, magical film ... A film with a big heart !!!

I saw this film at a festival in Delhi and was amazed at the inter-mingling of the characters and very linear story-line which was totally intriguing and extremely well shot. I reached a little late for the film (around 5-10 minutes I guess) but after the first couple of minutes of wandering, fully got engrossed in the film. The story is about a man with Pancreatic Cancer, who meets a beautiful village girl, Emma, who lives a rather alone and secluded life - away from the chaos-order of the city.. Well that's we initially suppose, because the truth is that her life is pretty chaotic within herself, and the coming of Max (the male protagonist) brings a refreshing, yet another chaotic change to her life... Confused? You have to watch the film to know what I mean! For instance, her kitchen, which is totally a mess, full of dirt, filth and gory pig blood... So is her room, her farm and her life - full of dirt, filth and dishonestly.Max on the other hand is a very dull, yet a powerful character. He represents every suffering soul on this plant, in pursuit of happiness.. but in his case he knows he could never, never be happy - he is soon to die because of his disease. He wants to go to Mexico to run away from his life (and probably his inevitable death)... Will he succeed in running away from his fate? Will Emma change for him - her world of chaos and routine? Will she accept Max's life of dullness and disease, giving him space to live in her heart, knowing he is soon to leave this world... Watch the movie to get your answers, while I ponder over mine!

Having missed out on several other films recently, I was very lucky to have seen this very nice film last weekend. The fact that it is different from the main stream makes more interesting for me. And it is a very well-told story playing in a rather remote area in Germany (there are actually a few). http://us.imdb.com/user/ur1300056/comments has a nice summary, so what I would like to add is that I enjoyed watching the two main actors, Jördis Triebel, a fairly young actress whom I wish lots of more luck, and the more experienced Jürgen Vogel who showed once more why he deserved to be in quite a number of recent films. The supporting characters were good, quite funny in appropriate parts. Overall, I hope that many more people will have the chance to see this film!
