So it happened that she was a teacher 'for 30', and he is her 18-year-old student. But it is beautiful, clockwork: guitar, volleyball ball, sail - everything arms in her hands, not in all 18-year-old girls so much thirst for life! How to fall in love with such?
And he is not judged by the years, with a sense of self (even his beloved is not allowed to undesecely reduce the assessment!). It was he, a graduation class schoolboy, builds plans for their common future ("in a year you will not be my teacher") and most importantly - believes in this future!
In addition, he is already doing very practical steps to implement it (for example, it is completely calmly asking for a walked father salary for work in the family enterprise). Even the fact that Christian does not hide from parents with the general photo with Stella, indicates his confidence in himself and his love.
Stella's feelings are not so unequivocal, she already has an unsuccessful experience of relationships, in addition, it gives her public opinion and as a result, it is more solid and adults it is he, and not she.
And if it did not happen what happened, most likely, they would have lived long and happily, like, for example, the new French president with his wife, who was his own teacher who fell in love with a schoolboy and managed to conquer.
It is noteworthy that at one of the filmites in the discussion of this film there are many feedback from the touched men who survived such feelings in his youth. That is, the situation described in the film (and before in the story of Siegfried Lenza), not new and not original, but in the 'minute of silence' it is shown so sincerely and it is delicate that the film is worthy of repeated revision and evaluation
