A Berlin classic: Tom Schilling drifts through the nights of Berlin: "Light-footed, clever, funny, and original. A godsend for German cinema” rbb Kulturradio

Life could go on like this. Could, but doesn’t: his girlfriend ends their relationship, his father cuts him off, a psychologist diagnoses him as ‘emotionally unbalanced’, a strange beauty named Julika confronts him with the wounds of their shared past, his new neighbour pours his heart out over schnapps and meatballs, and there doesn’t seem to be any ‘normal’ coffee left in the whole city.
