About This Movie

White Cloud Carolin is a quiet, introspective film that captures the tender, often painful nuances of first love through the eyes of twelve-year-old Hannes.

The pacing is gentle, allowing the viewer to dwell on Hannes' feelings, his jealousy of Benno, and the bittersweet innocence of childhood. There's a nostalgic atmosphere, heightened by the film's simplistic yet effective practical effects that ground the story in its rural setting. Performances are heartfelt, especially from the young leads, who convey an authenticity that's hard to find. It’s a contemplative piece that lingers long after it ends.
