This was one of those sweet, quiet Baltic films about an oafish (reserved?) man whose wife moves out, he takes to eating Chinese every night, becomes involves with the restauranteur to the point of marrying his sister to get her a green card.
So it became a (very subdued) love story. The language barrier was used for comedic effect. It walked right on the line of believability. Everyone here was likable and pleasant. No fierce conflicts arose. The resolution worked...barely. Overall a pleasant, satisfying film.
The title means "chinaman" in Danish.
