Quote:
The German middle class takes another drubbing in novice helmer Matthias Luthardt’s pingpong, a chamber piece with four characters full of unspoken needs that rarely bursts with the kind of tension required to make an impact.

Though strong enough for small fest play, pingpong is unlikely to be bouncing around multi-territory art cinemas.Read More »
