I can say that I find it extra valuable that the productions that make the main theme of how precious life is are brought to the audience with a story in the comedy-drama genre. Smiling while watching the movie and experiencing emotional moments at the same time by thinking deeply about our lives gives extra viewing pleasure.
The movie Der geilste Tag, which tells the story of two main characters searching for joy and hope despite the difficult conditions of life, has an effect that I think fits the above description. The film shows how enjoyable the beginning of a tragic story can be, and through the two characters, it is full of teachings such as not losing hope even in the most challenging conditions and enjoying life no matter what the circumstances.
The characters of the film, Tobi (Florian David Fitz), a patient in his last days as a survivor, and Andi (Matthias Schweighöfer), a terminal cancer patient with a childlike spirit and a source of life energy, stand out with their heartbreaking and smile-inducing personalities.
What the characters do instead of spending their last days in a hospital waiting for death is the subject of the movie, and watching hope blossom again at the end of the story has the beautiful effect of experiencing opposite emotions at the same time.
Observing the passion of the characters, who have never met each other, to support each other and embark on a new adventure when fate brings them together at a common point, I think it can serve as an example for anyone who is at the point of losing hope. When I approach the film and the story from this perspective, it is possible to say that there are many teachings that can be learned.
For those who have made their death calculations and decided to live their lives with much more courage than they would normally think, their vulnerability due to inability or failure in execution leads them to give up easily. I think the development of the characters and their determination compared to the beginning were small details that made the story of the movie more beautiful than it was.
The friendship that developed between the characters and the trust issues that were overcome over time were the most touching moments of the story. In fact, we can think that the most touching moments of the characters waiting for death are moving towards a common end, but the warm and sincere atmosphere created by the movie highlights different emotions.
To give you a small hint, they manage to make you laugh even as they bring tears to your eyes. I can say that the other elements of the movie are also successful, but it would be more appropriate to say that the characters stand out the most and the story is character-driven.
As both characters are nearing the end of their lives, we can see their rediscovery of their belief in love as the sub-theme of the movie because I can't say that it is emphasized too much. While this keeps the drama and the main plot of the movie intact, it remains as a tiny detail about how love makes life beautiful.
I recommend you to watch Der geilste Tag, which has an emotionally rich story that reminds us that life is temporary and that every living being will taste death. With its laughing and thought-provoking scenes, it also contains messages that we should appreciate every moment of life.
Thank you for being here and for reading. Take care and goodbye!
