À propos de ce film

In Europe, small, traditional, Mom & Pop shops are vanishing at an alarming rate. The attitude 'cheaper is better' is becoming the rule and "big" often outshines or absorbs the "small" and local. OUT OF TIME is a documentary about four of the dying breed of small local shops: a butcher's, a drug store, leatherware shop and button shops. By the end of the film only one of these shops will have survived. Silently observed by the camera, the film unfolds as a portrayal of memories, relationships, working conditions, love, loneliness and the passing of time. (Harald Friedl) (Original Title: Aus Der Zeit)
