I love seeing exotic locales like that, which I am unlikely to see otherwise, and I found the film worth my time just for that. Very nice and interesting photography, and I gleaned from the credits that it was actually filmed there. To my mind, the best parts of the film took place in Pakistan and in the Pakistani Himalayan foothills. A better film (also German but available with English subtitles) is North Face (Nordwand, IMDb #tt0844457) which is both very dramatic and has very spectacular mountain climbing sequences (although I still wanted more there as well).
There was some of this, but not nearly enough for my tastes, or I would have given the film a higher rating. I primarily viewed this film not for the story but in the hopes of spectacular mountain scenery and spectacular mountain climbing sequences.
Their budding relationship will, however. Even if there was no romance between the couple to begin with, they grow closer in the face of adversity. Hence, some of the dialog was rather lost on me and very likely some of the drama as well. 6.0 (138) When a unassuming young librarian is disowned by her family for fraternizing with her handsome neighbor, she turns to that neighbor for emotional support. My understanding is limited because I do not speak German and apparently there has been no release of this film with English subtitles, or at least I could not find one (I did find some English subtitles on the internet but they were both badly out of synch and a mashed Google translation from Russian!). I have a limited understanding of this film so am writing this review only because there were no other reviews yet.
