The Door-to-Door Bookstore
Directed by The Chau Ngo
Produced by Wüste Film West, Wüste Film
A heartwarming, character-driven story about human connection and the transformative power of books, centered on an unlikely friendship between a solitary man and an exuberant child.
Carl’s life runs like clockwork: every day, he goes door-to-door delivering books to a handful of loyal customers. He knows their preferences and takes pride in selecting the perfect story for each of them. But his well-ordered life is turned upside down by a cheerful nine-year-old girl, Schascha, who decides to join him on his daily book round. Schascha’s unique outlook on life helps Carl to come out of his shell and realise that his customers are so much more than just that to him. But when Carl unexpectedly loses his job, this vibrant community starts to fall apart - and it will take the power of books and all Schascha’s determination to bring them back together again.
