About This Movie

So, 'Verzeihung, sehen Sie Fußball?' is a fascinating little gem from the early 80s, directed by Gunther Scholz. Set against the backdrop of a high-rise in Berlin during the World Cup final, it explores the tension between obsession and personal relationships. The pacing feels almost like the game itself, with moments of suspense and introspection interspersed with vivid portrayals of the characters. Kneutzsch, the soccer fanatic, is such a relatable figure, caught between the thrill of the match and the frustrations of his companion. The atmosphere is thick with the feeling of an East German summer, and you can really sense the weight of that moment in history. The performances are raw and genuine, capturing a slice of life that makes this film stand out in its own right.
