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: Great for romantics and people who like stories about real, flawed people. The chemistry carries it.
The mood: Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace: Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 39 min.
What might put you off: It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A young man struggles with the pressure of caring for his terminally ill father while trying to unlock a secret that his father seems determined to keep from him. The story takes another dramatic turn when Ron, Burghardt’s long-lost friend from his youth, re-appears — and a well-kept family secret is uncovered.
