Tragic-funnily milieu study proves, there is hope for German cinema

With "Heikos Welt" Dominik Galizia shows us a lovingly made film about the Kiez and pub culture in Berlin-Wedding including original scenes and people without neither glorifying nor stripping them off their dignity. With mostly friends, including Martin Rohde who charmingly leads us through the story as Heiko, Galizia presents us something what has successively been going missing in German filmmaking (or even international film culture which has become dominated by the Netflix/Amazon machinery) throughout the last decades: courage, heart and pursuing an idea without a huge budget or key relations within the film industry.
