German cinema is dead dead dead
I can tell you why this movie was produced and got all the funding from a dozen state institutes. In the tite, the word "Mann" (man) is present. Yep, thats it. German movies who have Woman or man in the title get 95% of all funding money because 30-40 years ago there were 3 or 4 succesful movies with "Man" in the title. You may chuckle but this is the harsh reality of getting your movie funded from 60 year old bureaucrats. Some people with desk jobs and no affiliation to the movie industry, decide which movies are produced. In some cases, its 1 Person for 30 years or more in charge of greenlighting projects.
