We Used To Be Cool

Marie Kreutzer's upbeat comedy follows three professionally successful couples, members of today's generation, who are simultaneously idealistic and materialistic. They live comfortably in their free-range, fair-trade, Apple-equipped apartments in the city centre. They seem to have everything -- except a purpose. One of the couples gets pregnant, and when the others quickly follow suit they all begin to discover that life is suddenly all too real. With a mixture of subtle and broad humour, touching moments and genuine observation, the film watches as, in different ways, the six individuals cope with the changes triggered by family and responsibility.
