Sophia, der Tod und ich

What makes this movie unique is its great humour.

It begins with the death knocking at a young man's door, explaining the man he has 3 minutes left to live. The young man shuts the door calling the death a freak. After the death walks through the door he realizes there is something more to it.

The man than decides to go visit his mum, which he hasnt seen for some time, with his (ex)girlfriend.

The movie portrays a deep sadness but always combined with great great humor. I had a few loud laughs in the open air cinema, where we watched it.

The absurd scenery works as an allegory for life and death itself. It often asks big questions and sometimes only hints at meaninglessness and absurdism. As the death realizes he's captured on earth for a while he opens and closes the door in the train just because he can and it doesn't matter anyways.

After all time was flying with this movie.

Actually more like goodbye ... so no pun intended then. An interesting idea for sure - how would it be, if Death came for you and talked to you before he took you with him? Of course there are a lot of questions (yes there is not just one - all employed as you can imagine) .. and some are even answered ... which is quite something.

A lot of funny ideas and quite the story this tells. Going on a journey that goes quite different from what death thought it would be ... and which make it quite refreshing for the viewer. The humor has to be loved - and it is quite dark and strange! I thought it was quite fitting ... and the movie stayed true to it throughout ... so Kudos for that .. if you like low budget weird movies ... this could be for you! Really good acting too (tight script)
