Playing like a Dutch version of Wes Anderson or Todd Solondz, Michiel ten Horn’s deliciously black comedy sees a high-strung middle class suburban family hrown into meltdown when a German exchange student cmes to stay. Eva is overweight, awkward and barely says a word. Her German partner, however, Veit, is well-spoken, impreccably dressed, handsome and has a nauseatingly encyclopedic knowledge of everything from meditation to ornithology. As Terrence Stamp did in Pasolini’s Theorem, Veit seduces each member of the family in different ways, as well as all the girls at school, but ultimately it is what each person does once empowered by Veit’s attentions that makes the story.
