/-\|_ICE !/\/ T|-|E C!T!E$ 5

German journalist Philip Winter has a case of writer's block when trying to write an article about the United States. He decides to return to Germany, and while trying to book a flight, encounters a German woman and her nine year old daughter Alice doing the same. The three become friends (almost out of necessity) and while the mother asks Winter to mind Alice temporarily, it quickly becomes apparent that Alice will be his responsibility for longer than he expected. After returning to Europe, the innocent friendship between Winter and Alice grows as they travel together through various European cities on a quest for Alice's grandmother.

@s4mth16ngstr24nge well, i'm guessing it would be at the airport anyways...

"i'll meet you in amsterdam." kind of vague, don't you think? like there is only one address in amsterdam, huh. more like, "if chance has it, we might meet in amsterdam." you'd need an extraordinay coincidence for that reunion to happen. i guess this girl's mom ain't too responsible. kind of selfish, too.

this film has alot of background noise in it - cars, airplane. it's loud.
