A bed, viewed from above. As if it were an animated film, the man's life flashes before our eyes. A journey through time, unconventional and full of unexpected twists and turns.
“I had the impression it was always dark. I made my way to the furniture factory under the cover of darkness and when I came back there was a power cut. Saying that I always had nails, and most importantly my peace and quiet”. That was in the seventies; then there came the crisis, the strike, the fall of the Berlin Wall and then the new economy, with its free market competition and the Mafia. Life's a merry-go-round. Here it's a bed, viewed from above. As if it were an animated film the man's life flashes before our eyes. An ironically-narrated journey through time, unconventional and full of unexpected twists and turns. KF
