Die Mitte der Welt plot

When 17-year-old Phil returns home from summer camp, he doesn't suspect anything has happened. But the mood between his mother Glass and his twin sister Dianne, with whom he lives in an old mansion, is freezing. Instead of looking for the origin of the dispute, Phil silently lets the matter rest. He'd much rather spend the rest of the vacation spending time with his best friend Kat, one of the few people who loves Phil's family as it is. But then it's time to go back to school.

Special romantic coming-of-age drama film. Cinematography: the homes of Phil and Nicolas are located in beautiful locations in the woods. Some scenes (and music) reminded me of the films of Xavier Dolan: the slow motion scene in the clothing store, the red color when Nicolas walks into the classroom, the beginning jets from the shower head filmed from below. And what a beautiful sensual shower scene and romantic love scenes with that transparent mosquito net around the bed! Music was very beautiful, subtle and well suited to the scenes. Nice, the alternation between images from childhood and the present time. The young twins play their roles very well. The ending was sad at first, but eventually offered hope for a better future! I am curious about what will happen to Phil.......

Film that pleasantly surprised me.
Of course there are some bad moments, but they don't outweigh the truly beautiful ones, like this one where Phil discovers with dismay and deep disappointment that his ideas about love are completely at odds with those of someone he saw as a loyal, home-loving partner..
The story touches on more than one human relationship and the filmmaker unashamedly makes many leaps in time, but the film shows an astonishing openness in all that human fuss, free from hypocrisy and false sentimentality, is supported by beautiful music and can still count on solid acting, with Louis Hofmann in particular doing well, in my opinion.
It may take a while to get into the whimsical nature of the structure, but soon watching the film becomes an engaging endeavor.

Nice movie, there are much worse in this genre.

The mother plays a very annoying person.

The boys are playing quite well.

The story is a bit dull and boring.

But it's still quite watchable.
