SICK, completely sick after watching the movie.

Well, I saw it exactly one year ago, when it was shown in Polish cinemas [there was something like 'German Films', being shown in all bigger cities in my country] Though I never remember what films are about after a month, not saying a word about one YEAR, I remember me wanting to run out of the cinema when the film started. I was really shocked. And, well, nobody told me about the atmosphere of the film, maybe that's why I felt like this described above.

If you want to go out of the cinema feeling depressed, you should watch it :)

It's depressing, but it's matter in fact a masterpiece, with so many layers, so if someone else is feeling like watching this film, don't feel afraid of watching it... there are films that are matter in fact incredibly sad, but they are so well told that they touch the nerves of the soul (anybody remember "Hon dansade en sommar", "Au hasard Balthazar", "The Cranes are Flying" all sad but incredibly beautiful), yes, this movie might not be for everybody (the OP might have need checking what the film was about, that's always important), but if someone is fine with watching a sad story if it's well told and powerfully touching: then go ahead and watch it.
