From the youth directed novel of the same name by Greogor Tressnow comes a film by Detlev Buck that is a realistic portrait of life in the section of Berlin called Neukölln. It’s about power and weakness, delinquents and victims, and the difficulties a 15-year-old faces in a poor and criminal environment. Well acted, scored and paced, TOUGH ENOUGH (2006, 98min) strikes a careful balance between social realism and hip street thriller.
