Great Movie ! sebastianwurm7 November 2011 I Loved the new Weingartner Movie ! Makes you think how we treat the “mentally disturbed ” or even what is mentally disturbed ??? You should definitely go and see it . If you liked ” Das weisse Rauschen ” and ” die fetten Jahre sind vorbei ” this is the Movie to see. Brilliant Actor Peter Schneider catches you with his performance . In the first part of the movie , we can see how his life is dramatically changing and the only solution society is giving him ,is drugs . As he decided to find his own way ,nobody can understand him. His only friend is a young ukranian Boy how is helping him and guiding him into nature where they are trying to find their way of living . 13 out of 18 found this helpful. Was this review helpful?

much prefer wood in the huts – its on petflix
Director Hans Weingartner is a very good film maker. His first film “The White Sound” (2001) is about a mentally unstable young man who ingests magic mushrooms and never comes down from the high. Weingartner’s depiction of a schizophrenic with auditory hallucinations represents a plausible interpretation of what that illness may actually really be like.
“Hut in the Woods” falls a little bit short of expectations for me although I still enjoyed the film. Martin’s hallucinations of Viktor seem to be a real possibility but I’m a bit confused about Lena. Was she a hallucination as well? It’s still a pretty good picture. 3 and a half stars.
Rating system is really messed up on this site. Good movie, rating way too low. So 5 stars… and thanks EFM.
