In the Aisles

2018

Christian is new to the superstore. He mutely plunges into this unknown universe: the endless aisles, the eternal order of the warehouses, the surreal mechanicisms of the forklift trucks. His colleague Bruno from the drinks department takes him under his wing, showing him all the tricks of the trade and soon becomes a fatherly friend. Marion from the confectionary department likes to have a bit of a laugh and a joke with Christian. When he falls in love with her, the entire warehouse is rooting for him. But Marion is married... (Festival information, Berlinale 2018)

When life is a supermarket what we need is not found on the shelves but in the aisles. The film shows in an artistically  convincing way what is meant by: „Blessed are the pure in heart“.
