Mein Sohn

No pun intended - I know the saying goes way differently of course. But in this case or rather in this movie, let's pretend the saying can go this way too - this way or the highway! Sorry I can't help myself when it comes to puns. And talking about not helping oneself: the movie is about helping or finding each other. It is what the two main characters are doing throughout.

Not always successful of course, but very well played. The drama the movie creates is really working - and it has to do with the past and the future. Because things you have done ... they do not vanish entirely and the movie reminds us of that (no pun intended).

There is a lot to unpack (and to pack I reckon), before and during the journey ... the movie does a fine job depicting different stages of ... understanding and conflict solving ... which does not mean there is success ... a movie that keeps you guessing ... until the end that is.
