There is a German film festival in Sydney this week, organized by the Goethe-Institut Australia. They show German films in German language with English subtitles (in two normal Sydney cinemas).
Last night I watched one film, Wolke 9. It's the one where two elderly people fall in love. I had seen the trailer of it last year, so I knew what to expect, and was not disappointed. I would give the film a five star rating. Extremely authentic, inartificial (ungekünstelt) and believable, as if it all had been real. But I know that some people found the film disturbing, and it does touch a taboo topic (sex at old age).
