Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of book lovers and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Adapted from a book, so readers can compare notes.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 16 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1950: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

14-year-old Uli has only recently moved to Hamburg with his mother. His favorite place is the harbour. One day, he makes the acquaintance of fisherman Jens, who is shunned by many because he killed his best friend several years ago.
