Content:
Romantic mood and resignation define this novella-like film, where Death has grown weary of his duty and almost longs to be “defeated” by a young girl. Equally impressive is the main storyline: the scenes set in a romantically intricate German town with its sometimes quirky characters, and the scenes in the majestically dark hall of the “lights of life.”
