A perfect picture, from all angles. Brilliant scenario that plunges you into oblivion in face of the characters' fatality. I found myself, every few minutes, wondering about the future of these people, and about the choices they'll need to take. At no moment did I feel their actions unplausable or in any way absurd, the evolution was truly mastered. There was a great attention on details, every book, every piece of music, every shot, had a meaning and a reason to be there. The acting was wonderful, Ulrich Mühe portrayed his role so perfectly (I just found out he died 2 years ago... I think my heart just broke). The image also was superb, so was the sound design. I was so glad noticing this 10 000Hz frequency coming out of the monitors each time it was turned on, a detail always forgot in movies. It's just those little things that make this film so great. Finally, I need to give a big thumb up to Stéphane Moucha and Gabriel Yared for the original music, also very well made.
