Zwei im falschen Film

Heinz and Hans (Laura Tonke and Marc Hosemann) are in their forties, have been together for eight years, don’t beat around the bush with one another and live in the office attached to Hans’s copy shop, where they spend their evenings on the sofa playing the PlayStation. Heinz, who is actually an actress, is recording the voice of a cartoon traffic light in a series of road safety clips. To break out of their relationship routine, they work through a list of the things that make up ‘real’ love: romance, sex (not just every two months), passion, jealousy. Laura Tonke gives a stunning performance, including various different ways of crying. An intelligent, ironic comedy full of dry humor and the courage to tackle embarrassing details – about love in everyday life and love in the cinema. (bik)
