We Used to Be Cool

Marie Kreutzer amusingly plunges six middle-aged, professionally successful, cool bobos into a new world and the clash of beliefs that is child-rearing. The three couples, who are friends, decide to become parents at the same time. Idealistic and consumerist at the same time, they grow organic tomatoes on the balcony of their inner-city apartment, drink locally roasted coffee and Hugo, have also been to Thursday demonstrations and would never buy an electronic device without an apple logo. And they are certain that just because you have children, you don't necessarily become a philistine.

"Marie Kreutzer's tragicomic stocktaking of hipster existence with offspring is must-see cinema - for parents and those who still want to be."
