  • "Elfie, a fifteen-year-old former East German now living in West Germany, is trying to survive without much help. She falls in with a petty criminal named Darius, who comes from an Eastern European country. He talks her into helping him pull off one of his illegal schemes but she eventually wises up and has the police haul him off to jail. The film ends with Elfie taking another street-kid under her wing."
  • ""Ostkreuz tells the episodic story of 15-year-old Elfie, who literally and metaphorically inhabits a no man's land between the two Germanies shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The film deploys a neorealist aesthetic to reinforce the difficulties confronting the girl, and by inference, Germany."--Container."
