Sweep it Up, Swig it Down

1997 · 1h 10m · Documentary

Gabi, Stefan, and Henry used to work as street-sweepers for the city of Leipzig. A ruin is all that is left of the Municipal Street Cleaning Base of that time, and the city of Leipzig is moving after the reunification. The noise of air hammers is everywhere. Nowadays, their daily routine has become fragile between the social welfare office, pub, and their homes. There is always a remainder, something that doesn't work out even.
