Plot
The film is about four gay men who live in Swabia, Germany. It follows the men's lives and includes interviews with locals about how they feel about homosexuality.
Reception
Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote, "Funny, poignant and charming docu belies English title’s implied narrow focus to deliver a much looser appreciation of some quirky, semi-isolated gay men, the still largely homo-oblivious rural world they live in, various social networks/personal escape valves and life in general".[2]
The film won the Teddy Award in 2003 for Best Documentary at the Berlin International Film Festival.[1]
