Director's notes
In making the film, it was therefore all the more important not to look down on young people's situation, but to make a film at eye level. The stylised mixture of staged scenes and documentary shots as well as real interview statements felt just right for us. The mood of the people is by no means depressed or sad, but rather exuberant, sociable and self-deprecating - and that is exactly what we wanted to express.
