Fonceur, tenace et plein de ressources, Jack, dix ans à peine, est déjà seul responsable de sa famille : son petit frère Manuel, six ans, et leur mère célibataire aimante, mais totalement immature, Sanna, qui travaille la journée et fait la fête la nuit. Mais cet homme de la maison en culottes courtes n'est pas infaillible et un événement va venir bouleverser le quotidien de ce trio. Les services de protection de l'enfance décident alors de retirer la garde des deux garçons à la jeune femme et de placer Jack dans un centre d'hébergement. (Diaphana Distribution)

A pretty solid German drama set in this gray part of Berlin that doesn’t have much to show other than one incredibly dysfunctional family. Jack and his brother for instance are very interesting characters and you can see Jack’s brain really struggling with his idea of what family means. But the craziest character is the mother, whose kids are gone God knows where for four days and she doesn’t give a damn. I must say the ending literally pissed me off and I was also a bit disappointed that the author actually laid the entire story on the 16-year-old Jack, in whom something awoke at the end of the movie that his mother will never have and that’s why things ended up the way they did.
