More of an underground experiment than an above-ground, straightforward drama, this stylized film is about Teutonic decadence landing in and spreading around the cocaine capital of the world, Colombia. Some of the German ex-patriots delineated here have all the warmth of a Siberian winter, while some -- such as a gay-blade babbler surrounded by beautiful people of his own gender -- have all the depth of a fruit tart, and some are just fruity tarts. As these types go on and on about sex, government, justice and the lack of it, audiences might end up as alienated as the characters in the narrative.
