About Berlin-Buenos Aires
Alex, Sik, Jürgen, Micha and Günther are linked by more than place, they move between two cities and through complicated personal ties. The film follows a small cast as relationships strain under distance and competing loyalties, with scenes that shift from quiet domestic moments to tense confrontations. Romance, family history and decisions about where to belong sit at the center, and characters carry past mistakes and tender hopes as they try to keep bonds intact. The story traces how choices in one city ripple across the ocean, setting up emotional conflicts without revealing how things will resolve.
Released in 2008, the film was directed by Alejandro Cardenas-Amelio and created by Cuini Amelio-Ortiz and Chris Silber. The lead cast includes Fabian Busch, Alice Dwyer, Joachim Paul Assböck, Kristian Kiehling and Volkmar Kleinert.
Box office details aren't widely reported, suggesting a limited theatrical run and modest commercial impact, especially outside its initial release markets. It didn't register as a mainstream hit, which has kept it under the radar for many viewers.
The picture hasn't left a large mark on popular culture, yet its title and premise make a clear link between Berlin and Buenos Aires that some viewers find evocative. With a very small number of public ratings, including an average around 2.7 out of 10 based on three votes, it has stayed largely obscure and tends to be discussed in niche circles or by those interested in cross-cultural dramas.
Critical and audience response has been minimal and mixed, with few reviews visible and limited festival or press attention. Themes center on distance, family obligation, generational tension and the push-pull of love versus practical needs. Performances aim for intimacy over spectacle, and the film will likely appeal to viewers who prefer slow, character-focused dramas rather than plot-driven entertainment.
