Reception

Roger Ebert praised the film awarding it 3 1/2 / 4 stars stating, "The writer-director, Christian Petzold, uses a spare, straightforward visual style for the most part, except for those cutaways to trees blowing in the wind whenever we heard the harsh bird cry. He trusts his story and characters. And he trusts us to follow the business deals and become engrossed in the intrigue. I did". Ebert also praised male leads Striesow and Schoenemann calling the similarities of both character's physical presences as being "unsettling".[5]

It currently has an 81% on the review website Rotten Tomatoes, the sites consensus saying "Chilly and haunting, Yella's atmosphere gets under the skin".[6]
