In Europe's biggest pawnshop, Jola and Wiesiek offer a surreal and humorous glimpse into their world, where conflicts and caring moments collide. From second-hand toasters to sausage and a pat on the back, this darkly funny docu-comedy showcases the proprietors' low-level conflicts and snap judgments. Facing bankruptcy, they come up with a fresh idea to save their surreal Wunderkammer of a shop, bringing new hope to the once-bustling industrial town. This festival favourite delivers humour, charm, and humanity in spades.
