Por Que Não?

Some other comments have summarized the content of the film. For me the positive thinking about human relationships is at the core of this work. The film breaks free of conventional relationships and focuses on the love between people. Love comes to the most improbable people by being sensitive to the example set by the main figures of the plot. The most inspiring feature is the positive thinking. You go out of this film and you really ask yourself: Why not! Why not pay attention to the love that is searching you and that you may never have realized. I would love to own a DVD. A shame that it never got published outside cinemas. If it comes out I will definitely buy it. I did not know that it was shown in Germany.

Will it be able, to see this film again. Does anybody know, where there might be a copy or a digital release or something? I remember, the Film impressed me very much, when i saw it in the late seventy's, it even gave a new direction to my ethics, if i can say so with my medium bad English and i would very much like to see it again for i.e. just control, if i was correctly impressed that time. It seemed like a revolution, the promise of the possibility of love to more than one with the solution for so many not loved people, that are not loved because love is so restricted. Also maybe the way out of the 68 free love dilemma, cause this way love stays still romantic.

I've seldom been so mad that I wasn't in Cleveland.

I truly wish that I could find this on DVD. I saw it in the '90s in a cinema ta brings in rare, art, foreign, and cult films. There are some depressing and confusing moments in the film that only help to emphasize the humanity in the themes it confronts. This is a different kind of love film that deals with the reality of human nature and who we are as people, and the acceptance of that which is not normal. The film deals with the realities of polyamory in ways that I've never seen in any film or piece of literature, and it is moving in a surprising way. Not like the over-the-top reality shows of the modern era, this is people as they really are and shows us that it's those we love that mater most, and how there really can be enough love to go around.

... or a confused woman/man in the middle of an identity crisis! This wonderful comedy - it combines successfully the hilarious and the horrible - has nevertheless a strong underlying message of great seriousness: What matters is people, and their love for each other, and their strength to carry on. I've loved this film ever since I first saw it. It seems to be almost forgotten (except in Germany, where it still is a cult movie) - I am looking forward to the day when it will be released on video or DVD.
