Stefan (Lukas Turtur) and Andreas (Philipp Hochmair) live a charmed existence. Their affection and intimacy is explored with unexpected and explicit candour in this intriguing study of a relationship suddenly tipped off balance. The men, both involved in the music that twines together the film’s story, share their home with a much-loved cat, Moses. The sudden violent death of the animal changes everything between them. As an inciting event, it’s a troubling device and not fully persuasive. The languid pacing doesn’t help – we have plenty of time to question the authenticity of the act during the numerous shots of Andreas pensively tending his shrubs.
