Poetic documentary about the microcosm of a market with its own rules, mores and fixed rituals. The film shows the environment and perceptions of three Rotterdam merchants at Europe’s longest, age-old outdoor market. How does the threesome react to modern changes and strange external influences? Who can cope with a world in development and who stays stuck in the past? What are the choices they make to keep afloat? (Nederlands Film Festival)
