Care, do not scare! A naked, trained, meat-centered man's upper body that wraps itself dramatically in a white shirt, a tie around his neck errt, the expensive clock grabs - the imagery with which the first scenes of "Song for Mia" are filmed, almost flirts with you before, one had accidentally fumbled in the preface of the "Bachelor".

But that really does not fit badly, because in fact Sebastian, called Sebbe (Tim Oliver Schultz), is a similarly ambitious serial women's betrayer as the RTL-Balzbock. As a professional patsy the son of rich parents moves through the clubs (which look like a walk-in "Bravo" photo story), is discovered by a producer while trolling on the disco club, gets a record contract - and runs home on an iron bar, whereupon he No one can see anymore and have to be told by a doctor that the impact caused an aneurysm to burst in the head, causing a brain haemorrhage that may have blinded him irreparably. So bizarre, so lard typical.

The story that then unfolds, one knows painfully exactly, if one was already on too many civil weddings with latently tight lazy registrar, who like to fall back on a proven Betulichkeitsklassiker with their travails: One sees only with the heart well, the wisdom is indeed durchgeludelt mercilessly, but unfortunately you can say something bad against it.

"Song for Mia": Blind makes love

And so turns the blind version of self-lover Sebbe under the influence of his sincerely-natural, patent Latzkleid wearing nurse Mia (Paula Kalenberg), the optically, of course, not his other catalog of requirements, back to the sensitive, open man, he probably was at some time , Instead of wild sex there are now tender fingerings in the picturesque holiday home.

Overbearing behavior is cruelly romanticized

More annoying than the motive of the purified cuddly boy who comes to the knowledge without the sinful temptations of everyday life, is only a dramaturgical idea: Mia secretly films Sebbe singing and puts the video online - titled "The cutest Blind ever! " Once again, overbearing behavior is cruelly romanticized, because after all, it leads to success: Sebbe may now still be a pop star, but must be quickly but, it is already suspected, by a rescuing operation briefly reconverted into the old disgust.

The fact that the story of "Song for Mia" seems so woodcut from the kitsch coloring book, grieves even more, because the two really good actor necessarily deserved a less predictable plot. Tim Oliver Schultz, known from the "Red Ribbon Club", turns off his raging Zornblinden the juice at just the right moment, before the exaggeration is too much, and actually takes the curve to emotional on the campfire struggling Emoboy as credible as this one Change can only tell.

Paula Kalenberg plays her friendly, but defensive Mia well dosed, without slipping into obviously lurking and overblown pretty-girl-plays-ugly-duckling maneuvers. Both harmonize wonderfully with each other, especially in the sometimes surprisingly free-of-speech dialogues - before the next crude exchange of words zerdeppert this chemistry again. For example, when watch collector Sebbe Mia admits his love: "Before I met you, I felt like a Swatch inside and outwardly like a Patek Philippe, and with you, I feel like a Patek Philippe with you."

Giesinger sends his regards

You can smile good-naturedly about how the "song for Mia" sometimes tap into his own narrative trap: Sebbe is to be portrayed as a superficial eel boy - and is so often unnecessarily uncaring to see that one could almost believe that someone on the production side is pretty superficial - or subordinate this to his audience.

The dialogues become ridiculous when Sebbe vehemently opposes his producer's suggestion to release the soulful song written on the beach with Mia: German texts are uncool, insists Sebbe, suggesting a world without Mark Forster, Max Giesinger and the others German soft boys.

Which is also funny because the song "It takes time", which he sings in the film, was actually written by Jens Schneider, who also worked for Joris, Max Giesinger, and Vincent Weiss. If that was meant as a joke, he has succeeded perfectly.
