This movie apparently hasn't been seen by a lot of people but boy are they missing out. If you like foreign films this one has got everything. A great storyline, great acting and so unbelievably funny! I think foreign films are my favorite because even with the subtitles they manage to make better films and more creative ones than Hollywood does. Definitely a must see!

I agree with reviewer Lisa. This film should get more exposure. It is absolutely charming and funny, while also being a bit dark. The characters are fantastic and the acting great. I real winner that I imagine not enough people will see. Rent it!
