Synopsis
Susanne (17) and Robert (18) want to get married, but because Susanne is still under-aged, she needs parental permission. With twin babies and tight finances, the newlyweds soon feel overwhelmed, and dealing with everything makes them forget the love that originally brought them together.
In this sequel to his box-office hit Seven Freckles (1978), director Zschoche skillfully captures the life and problems of young East Germans in the late 1980s.
Press comments
“Our message is that you have to learn to love, sometimes your whole life long.”
— Christa Kožik, scriptwriter
“A not-to-be missed blending of love story and drama.”
—prisma.de
“We had two difficult roles to cast. We decided against acting students because most of them behaved as if they'd been through youth for a long time. Since we only could consider 11th and 12th graders, the selection basis was small. We resorted to the last possibility: the advertisement. [...] And then she came into the room. Like a dream… with big blue eyes from which she was about to cry heartbreakingly. A miracle happened at the last minute. [...] With Anja Kling and Marc Lubosch we found an ideal couple.” —Herrmann Zschoche, Sieben Sommersprossen und andere Erinnerungen
