Björn’s Thoughts
Let me point out that Mouth to Mouth does contain several breathtaking sequences that I feel proud of to this day. Some even consider it my best film to date. As always, I am perhaps too self-critical for my own good, believing that in this film the parts may be better than the whole... In the end, this film was invited to the Berlinale (The Berlin International Film Festival) in the category “Dieter Kosslick’s Choice”.
