Jack

Despite his young age, 10-year-old Jack looks after his little brother a lot better than his working mother. At some point, an accident will cause social services to place him into foster care, but he doesn't even last long. He escapes and, together with his little brother, they set out to look for their mother in the streets of Berlin.

Betting on the kid's naturally direct delivery, Edward Berger tells a tough coming-of-age story in the suburban streets of an inner city landscape. Realistic to the point of shocking, yet graced with a reserved romanticism, "Jack" deals with a demanding subject-matter without falling for easy fixes and cheap melodrama. N.S.
