Der Kuss (1999) is a curious piece, a drama that dives into the nuances of human intimacy and connection. The tone is quite somber, yet it has this almost ethereal quality to it that lingers. You get the sense of foreboding through its pacing, slow and deliberate, allowing the viewer to really sit with the characters' emotions. The performances are understated but resonant, weaving a tapestry of longing and unexpressed desires. It seems to capture the essence of a fleeting moment – a kiss, if you will – that carries the weight of unspoken words. What stands out is its practical effects; there’s this raw, tangible feel to the scenes that adds layers to the delicate theme of intimacy. Definitely a film that sparks discussion among collectors.
