I loved it. Lots of interesting characters and endearing quirkiness, and it was beautifully shot. I wasn't sure what to expect but I will now look out for more such German language films - this and Faraway (also on Netflix) are both charming. It showed the journey for both lead characters from heartbreak and cynicism to vulnerability and love. Karl and Maria are strong, intelligent and likeable. And attractive. And you are rooting for them. It wasn't cheesy or predictable (although there is room for those kinds of romantic comedies too). It was sweet and funny and it was a lovely way to spend the afternoon. It left me smiling.
