Dicke Mädchen/ Heavy Girls

Another movie to recommend and this movie is a low budget film. 
It's sure no "Hollywood" style, but very pure. 
Made in Berlin in Marzahn. It shows very pure and easy the way of living in east Berlin and so the colors are quite a bit unusual for most of us to watch in a movie.
But don't give up and wait a second when you see the movie on TV or DVD.... It's worth the waiting.
The movie is hard to put in a genre, cos it's funny but not comedy, it's sad, but not a sad film, it's earnest but not a dull movie. 
The film has some moments in silence and then others in action. The talkin' is very natural and the acting too. 

So this film is first of all a film about the simple live- live itself, then it is a film about a mother and her son, who is living with her, because she has dementia. At least the film is also the bitter sweet version of a love from two people coming up. 
What I liked is, that all the cliches and stereotypes where broken and you feel real good with this. It also shows that we may think about how we act with older people... and yeah with people who are not mainstream. 
The grandmother in the movie, the actress is actually 89 years old when she made the movie with her grandson. She is so lovely. 
The story has some turning and all of them are very good to follow, even you will be surprised but never be disappointed. 
I must confess that I smiled most of the time watching the movie and can only recommend it to watch for everyone, cos seems the movie has touched very different people in different countries where they showed the movie on festivals. 
So... a little but very much worth time out for you... except you only like the hollywood style, then this movie will maybe be to much for you...



LOVE & LIGHT
