18th century-themed costume party - but in a good way.
Simple story. German temperament meets the ideals of free-spiritedness. Inner and inter-complications depicted in a rapid pace with a rather lazy, yet functional, voice-over. There's something about the pragmatism of the dialogue. The almost uneventful (Rohmerian) escapism is as mesmerising as the Spanish scenery.
