Emma's Bliss is a 2006 romantic tragic-comedy that takes place in contemporary rural Germany.
The movie, directed by Sven Taddicken, is based on the novel Emmas Glück (now translated into English under the title Emma's Luck) by Claudia Schreiber. It was filmed in 2005 in Gummersbach (Berghausen), Rönsahl, Gimborn bei Marienheide and Bergneustadt (a local vehicle displays a license-plate indicating it is from Hochsauerlandkreis in Nordrhein-Westfalen). It was released the following year.
Famous quotes containing the word bliss:
“Frau Stöhr ... began to talk about how fascinating it was to cough.... Sneezing was much the same thing. You kept on wanting to sneeze until you simply couldn’t stand it any longer; you looked as if you were tipsy; you drew a couple of breaths, then out it came, and you forgot everything else in the bliss of the sensation. Sometimes the explosion repeated itself two or three times. That was the sort of pleasure life gave you free of charge.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
