Imaginative, witty, quirky, full of humor, with quiet moments of touching power and truth. It's about loneliness, love, sex, the meaning of life and "likes". Highly topical and yet full of deep truth. A lovingly and lightly told story, full of whimsical ideas, with excellent actors and images that you will not soon forget.
This film is a stunner. Absolutely worth seeing!!

Sexy!
Beautiful story about loneliness in a business that usually has people come together. Excellent acting, stunning camera, exquisite shirt-patterns and funny props.
Wow!
It is very rare to see a movie that can charm an audience without the extensive use of special effects, worn-out clichés and action set pieces these days.
I "discovered" this movie at the Zuerich Film festival ZFF. I got to see the movie on it's last showing, and all I can say is that it will not pain me one bit to pay to see this gem a second time.
Assembling the best and most unlikeliest of ensemble casts you may probably see for a long time, Great directing, beautiful camera work and when the more touching moments arrive, they don't seem forced but natural and honist, because these moments are truly earned. But WHAT a collection of characters this is. Alexandra Gilbreath absolutly stunning as Eva Parker I can't describe in words - you must see! Oliver Walker is perfect as tired influencer Adam Kowinski, searching for a real meaning in life. The crazy "Boss"; Kenneth Collard finds new shades of darkest despair and comedy as the man with the master plan; "Ted Lasso's" Jeremy Swift does amazing things with little more than facial expressions as Eva's Husband who's deep into potatoness, and many more perfictly casted supporting actors. A MUST see!
