Ein Film von Dominik Graf
mit der Musik von Sven Rossenbach und Florian Van Volxem
What do ticket collectors dream of? What happens when two men realise that they
have both loved the same woman? What does a young boy experience when he
catches the housemaid with her lover? Which story will unravel when, at a concert,
two longing looks miss each other by a hair´s breadth? What happened to the woman
who took of her clothes in a 1933 photo studio and what does all of this have to do
with the solar eclipse?
This is a fictional portrait of city or a portrait of a fictional city, the city that everyone
dreams of, and the dream that every city presents.
It´s also about how the biography of each individual is entangled in the city´s story –
and how the many individual stories of a city make up a kind of city biography.
The question is: what do we see when we look at the map of the city through a magnifying glass
and which pattern will appear when we follow the urban hustle and bustle?
