Reception
The film was generally well-received by German critics. The American film critic Eric D. Snider wrote that the film "has the sort of world-weary, melancholy bleakness we've come to expect from that country, while at the same time infusing energy and vigor into filmmaking as an art form. This is a pitifully touching film, uplifting for its intrinsic beauty even while evoking sadness for the characters."[1]
