What 13 Semester Is About

Momo leaves a small town for university in Darmstadt to study business mathematics. The first year is fine: halls, friends, parties. Then the courses get heavier, the exams pile up, and Momo falls behind a term at a time. His friend Dirk never studies and seems to have an easier time of it. Things go wrong with his girlfriend. The years pass, everyone around him graduates and starts working, and Momo is still there. By the thirteenth semester the question is no longer the degree but not knowing what to do. Frieder Wittich directs the German film; a hundred and one minutes, with Max Riemelt as Momo, Robert Gwisdek as Dirk and Alexander Fehling in the cast. The title is a German expression: students who drag out a degree get counted in semesters.
