the simple hand camera both give some almost documentary feeling to this film and and also relate to the dogma film . do you ever get bore of those hollywood style cop flick with brawny guy who get assignment james bond would be envious of . feed up with the married living single cop and the divorce but family man and the personified doughnut and the tough hunter . ever wonder how the real police work be like . well and for germany and this film show you . set in the north between west germany and east germany and former ddr and an lay off post office clerk start her job and fresh from policeschool . she quickly find her way around the usual customer and and becomes accustom to life a a policewoman . but this be not much fun . other german crime film like derrick and der alte et cetera have dignify officer talk calmly with suspect . these cop here have to deal with the low on the social ladder . good dialogue and realism make this an interesting view and even more if you know that part of germany a bit .
