Three

Despite their open liaison which even tolerates infidelity, Hanna and Simon are stuck in a relationship which suffers from mild disillusion. They both fight the crisis by having an affair, which they both accidentally start with the same person - Adam. In a serious, but at the same time humorous way, the film "Three" looks into the life of modern people in their fourties, who are still discovering who they really are, who are still looking for a fixed point in their lives, and for their sexual identity. After the European blockbuster "The Perfume: The Story of A Murderer", Tom Tykwer returns to a cabinet drama and to genre overlaps, letting his comedy constantly balance on the edge of drama. He speaks tongue-in-cheek about topics such as testicular cancer or the end of a relationship, without ridiculing his characters or oversimplifying their situation.
