Four Balloons and a Funeral asks the question: when are you ready for love?

Florist Gwen, an employee in a wholesale flower shop, is being courted by her likeable boss Joey. Gwen doesn’t object, quite the contrary. She has an intense, but also exhausting relationship with her mother Ellen. Fortunately, Ellen’s down-to-earth partner Ron is there to be supportive. While delivering flowers to a cemetery, Gwen trips, falls into an open grave and passes out. When she opens her eyes, a handsome man is leaning over her. He’s not an angel, but the emergency doctor Lennard. Sparks fly between them…

“The quality of these type of romantic films stems from their attention to detail as well as the performances of the ensemble. In fact, the this romantic drama is worth seeing precisely because of its central trio. Meriel Hinsching is a real joy thanks to her consistently believable warmth, especially as she plays the important little moments very convincingly. Moritz Otto and Bernd-Christian Althoff are attractive, evenly matched competitors for the main character’s affection.” – Tittlelbach.tv

“Nina Vukovic (director) won a Student Academy Award in 2007 for the romantic short film ’Nimmermeer’,” for which she wrote the screenplay. Here she again relies on speed and straightforwardness.” – Prisma.de
