"Wetlands" tells a fairly conventional story in about the most unconventional ways imaginable.

Arizona Republic
WETLANDS is wonderfully filthy and wildly perverse, occasionally funny, and even a little sad. -- Grade: A-
A.V. Club
Wetlands is dirty, explicit, romantic, tragic, psychedelic, raunchy, sexy, repulsive fun, and I loved every minute of it.

ScreenAnarchy
In spite of an early disclaimer that states "This book shouldn't be read or adapted to film," taken from a letter to the editor from Bild Online, you're glad Wnendt and company went ahead and did it anyway.

Moveable Fest
[A] funny, sweet and filthy German dramedy…
Washington Post
[I]t would be hardly as raucously effective without the game, brilliant and ultimately heartbreaking Juri, whose portrait of an adolescent seesawing between grownup hopes and childish games feels thrillingly new.
Los Angeles Times
The tone is breezy, bright and brash, vividly illuminated by Ms. Juri’s extraordinarily unprotected and utterly fearless performance.
New York Times
Product Description:
Helen Memel (Carla Juri) is one troubled soul. The product of severe emotional abuse early in life, she developed weird, OCD-like attitudes toward sex and cleanliness as an adolescent, and began to harbor serious issues involving trust. As a young woman, she rebelled against the repression that she knew as a youngster, by engaging in unconventional sexual activity such as onanism with vegetables, and practicing horrible scatological acts, such as barefoot strolls through raw sewage, and direct exposure to filthy public toilet seats. When Helen clumsily attempts to shave her nether regions, she ends up with a serious injury and must be hospitalized; bedridden, she begins to reflect on her wild and colorful life and sexual history. Meanwhile, she also develops feelings for a male nurse in the hospital (Christoph Letkowski), though it remains unclear if she has the stability necessary to get out of her predicament and make the relationship work.
