10/10
Pure Poetry
11 August 2003
One of the hardest tasks in filming any plot is to keep dignity when it comes to taboo subjects.

One of those is "getting old". This film offers a close perspective to the come-into-years Maria Schell. Old-time-stories alternate with the difficulty of coping with everyday problems. After all, the film is about anyone...it is our own future. The film's words and pictures are poetry of a very special kind. Its tenderness - which only a brother can film - is without compare: 10!
