Maybe humdrum, but cute.

I do not think it was all that obvious, and the fact that it is a Europeen film, not Hollywood, prevents it from falling into all the cliché cracks Hollywood has a tendency of falling into when the script is just so-so. I am not so hung up on corporate stuff - big offices with shiny surfaces leaves me somewhat cold - what I liked about the film was the lovestory between the women. I thought it nice and - maybe humdrum - but believable. The other pluss point was that the two ladies where way out of their teens and nice looking. And they where not afraid of their own feelings. Sexuality does not stop at 30. Thanks for that. If you want to chill out a couple of hours and want to see a lesbian-oriented film - this could well be the one.

Really good movie!

It's hard to find that movie out there! Which is very sad. I hope the actresses know what a great Job they have done!!? Even though it's over 20 years ago, it has a profound impact watching it. Really good. It's a meaningful movie, sometimes also a little cheesy but in a cute way;) I hope you guys get the chance watching it! It's so worth it! Vielen Dank Laila Stieler, Dagmar Hirtz, Charlotte Schwab, Ann-Kathrin Kramer und natürlich der Filmproduktion!

AVERAGE AND UNSURPRISING

Nice idea to switch within a standard format the male to female parts but this does not prevent the film from being further unsurprising. Moreover, while in the first half there is plenty story to be entertained, also due to the cast, it soon more or less collapses with a number of meaningless scenes: another love scene, another outing etc. The final scene can not save the tedium that has been building up in the meantime. The next time the makers want to do something different, they should think of something new.

Cute story!

I don't know how I stumbled into this film in 2023 but it was so cute and relaxing to watch even though I really only speak English. Such a cute storyline suitable enough to watch on TV. It was believable and not overly exaggerated and easy to follow along. It was so heartwarming and very happy throughout. Given the age of this film I am surprised how relaxing the reaction of their relationship was and it makes me wonder why I have never come across it before. The characters were relatable and it was well casted and so thankful for a happy ending especially given the theme of the movie. I really enjoyed it.
