Dreaming of purgatory, Sebastian sees only two ways to avoid this divine punishment: becoming an immortal rock star or find a new wife for his father….
Plot: In this black comedy set in small-town Bavaria, 11-year-old Sebastian thinks you can never be too young to be a murderer. He’s convinced that he killed his mother on the day he was born and is certain he’s already been condemned to purgatory. Deciding he might be able to knock off a few years of his sentence by doing good deeds, Sebastian sets out to find a wife for his father Lorenz. When Lorenz and Sebastian’s schoolteacher Veronika fall madly in love with each other, it seems the heavens must be smiling. There’s just one hitch: Veronika is married.

Beautifully written and directed
I couldn’t disagree more with the previous commentator. I saw this movie last night at the German Film Festival in Washington DC and was absolutely blown away (as was the person I watched it with). It is one of the most beautifully written movies we have ever seen. Set in rural Bavaria, the audience follows the adventures and thought processes of an 11-year old boy (played by a brilliant actor). The plot fits together perfectly, captures you completely, makes you laugh out loud hysterically at times and cry at others. The vivid portrayal of the community surrounding the boy lets you become a part of it. There was not a moment of boredom for me, and the first thing I said to my companion after the film was that I wanted to get it on DVD to watch it again. While the characterizations are larger than life, they are the farthest thing from clichés. This is a brave movie that has some of the best treatment of both youth and death that I have seen.
Some irony would have helped
Well, another German comedy … This time, it’s even a Bavarian comedy, obviously a high budget production (the photography is surprisingly good) … But it falls in the same trap of the mindset some Bavarians really seem to like: Speaking strong Bavarian accent is so great and so big fun, especially if it is combined with simple-mindedness and and ruthless manners. Therefore we have in this movie silly sex jokes (“Can I sleep with you?” asks the little boy his female teacher), lurid depictions of butchered pigs and killed rabbits and stupid dialogues like the father’s use of the phrase “Get lost” as a loving greeting for his son, or the little boy’s naive question “Können Sie Leviten lesen?” (sorry, this one can’t be translated). Of course, life in small Bavarian villages is here shown to be oh so great and oh so happy … Yeah, right, because it is so wonderfully simple-minded … If the script would have treated this kind of life with irony, this could have been a great movie, but being what it is it is just yet another simple-minded German comedy. Besides, the nude scene of the leading Austrian actor was hilariously bad. But still, some jokes are nice and there is a funny cameo by Konstantin Wecker, therefore the three points.
