Closing Time

Sperrstunde [Closing Time] is a filmic and musical journey through the night. 9 songs and 9 stories about night-cleaner crews, terminated relationships, closed pubs, 24 hour jobs, lonely brides and failed burglaries. A combination of live music and film projection with snapshots of life circumstances which, even with all the melancholy of taking leave, also contains some new beginnings.
