A substance that gets under your skin
The film follows Heike, a manager in building cleaning, who mediates daily between clients, company management, and cleaning staff. From a seemingly small decision, a conflict of remarkable force arises: The responsibility for people meets economic pressure, and this is where the evening derives its tension. Critics describe the film as a lifelike portrait of a seemingly hopeless situation, supported by a close, mobile camera and an impressive lead actress.

Staging with documentary precision
What makes this event special is the combination of film screening and personal introduction. This gives the evening a theater-like presence: not just watching, but reflecting together. The staging of the film is described in the trade press as direct, physically close, and unvarnished; this is precisely where its power lies. In the context of arthouse culture and discussion format, a concentrated audience event with political depth and strong acting unfolds here.
