**** Florian Froschmayer's congenial directing makes this light drama a well-rounded affair. The concentration of the story with the manageable personnel is reflected in the clarity of the visuals. The characters have the say - and yet a lot of atmosphere resonates in the images. The clouds are heavy over Styria, or they pass by and bury the time beneath them. – tittelbach.tv
