The Bridge Crosser 2007

Directed by Alexander Kluge

Fred Peickert lost his job in one of the new eastern German states. Ever since, he's been in a holding pattern, waiting for vocational rehabilitation. "I used to dream about my freedom and my retirement," he says. "Now I dream about work." There should be occupations which help to integrate more people into working life. Could "bridge crosser" be such a job for Fred Peickert?
