Główna bohaterka filmu ma zaledwie dziewięć lat, a doświadczeniem mogłaby obdzielić kilkoro swoich rówieśników. Do jakiejkolwiek placówki by nie trafiła, prędzej czy później zostaje z niej wydalona. Takie przypadki, jak niewinnie na pierwszy rzut oka wyglądająca Benni, w slangu pracowników socjalnych nazywane są „łamaczami systemu”. Za agresją, krzykiem, gwałtownością, które charakteryzują zachowanie dziewczynki kryje się jeden cel. Jest nim desperacka chęć powrotu do domu i życie u boku ukochanej matki. Kobieta ma jednak spore wątpliwości, obawiając się, że krnąbrna córka nie pozwoli jej ułożyć sobie na nowo życia. Kiedy kolejne sposoby nie pomagają poskromić wybuchowego charakteru Benni, niespodziewanie pojawia się światełko w tunelu w osobie nowego opiekuna Michy. Czy uda mu się odnieść sukces tam, gdzie wszyscy inni postawili na dziewczynce krzyżyk? (Aurora)

Child's Play: Don't touch my face! I assume that the cyclical nature of the plot was meant to emphasize the hopelessness of the situation and exhaust the viewer, who encounters it for only two hours and from a detached perspective. The result is a “non-family film,” followed by admiration for those who try to chew through a morsel that was too large for its creator and then still have to somehow swallow it.

I had no idea that an uncontrollable child is referred to as a "system crasher" in Germany. But I was fascinated by how vibrantly, humanly, and rawly the director brought this concept to life in her debut film. I was captivated and enjoyed every minute of it. This film made me ponder whether things are any different in my country, or if we also face endless bureaucracy and a lack of more humane approaches within the confines of the rules. I suspect it's not much different here. The real question is, how many system crashers does our own society produce today?

A dense drama about a ten-year-old girl with aggressive outbursts of rage that her mother is afraid of, whilst social facilities pass her back and forth to each other like a hot potato. This is by far this year’s film with the most screaming, which also serves as a feature-length advertisement for contraception. The film boasts great actors and an empathetic insight into the worries of social workers, whose sense of hopelessness, threat and constant terror is successfully transmitted to the audience. The film excels in building fears of another fit by the little girl and offers a number of surprisingly chilling scenes, but in its second half goes in circles for too long and is slightly clueless about how to end the suffering somewhat satisfactorily.

Germany serves up a dense, emotional, nerve-wracking, chilling and uncomfortable drama in the manner of the Scandinavians, and it's powerful! I was similarly torn by Nothing Bad Can Happen last time I saw a Germ film, and this one was similarly strong. The story focuses on a ten-year old girl who is literally a System Crasher. Her mother can't handle her and is actually scared of her, the social workers don't know how to handle her either, in fact no one can handle her at all and she is a terror to everyone. She's a ticking time bomb that could go off at any time. I personally didn't feel sorry for her because I don't sympathize with psychopaths regardless of age, especially considering the horrors they do to those around them. The highlight is the scene on the ice, unexpected directorial courage! The film has some uncomfortable and adrenaline pumping scenes and at times is not really fun to watch. One of those films that will leave something in you and if you don't have kids, you certainly won't be longing for the experience.

This is a truly uncompromising and unpleasantly noisy drama about a child who, due to past traumas becomes a danger to herself and the people around her, but how can the system help her? We are then witnesses to a merry-go-round of different fostering arrangements, all of which fail, and therefore a proper solution is never in sight. The plot of the two-hour-long movie, however, is a bit stuck in an endless impasse, as we are constantly presented with a few minutes of hope and then disappointment, over and over again. Nora Fingscheidt wanted to instill some frustration in the audience regarding the hopelessness of the situation, however, for me, something like that would be enough with a 90-minute movie. Here, after the first hour, I thought that it might somehow end slowly. Not to mention that we never find out the fundamentally important issue of quite what trauma little Benni had experienced in the past, and especially, who caused it (or what role her mother, who is a key figure in the movie, played in it). I will now add a small sarcastic remark at the end - that it borders on fantasy, that a nine-year-old girl could always be able to run faster than any of the adults chasing her. However, I would still recommend this movie, as I think it is helpful to see it. [KVIFF 2019]
