Rêver sous le capitalisme
Dreaming under Capitalism
Das penetrante Geräusch der Kassa verfolgt die Kassiererin bis in den Schlaf, die KollegInnen laufen als Zombies im Büro herum, eine Angestellte muss eine nicht mehr benötigte Leiche mit nach Hause nehmen. Sophie Bruneau versammelt in Rêver sous le capitalisme Erzählungen von zwölf Personen, die von ihrer Arbeit träumen, und verknüpft sie mit großteils menschenleeren Bildern zu einem nahezu essayhaften Film, der von Albtraum zu Albtraum zwischen erbarmungsloser Arbeits-Realität und düsterer Arbeits-Traumwelt wandelt.
(Katharina Riedler)
As the camera magnifies the graphic lines and cubic architectural office spaces, twelve dreamers recount how neo-management is authoring the nightmarish fictions of their nights. In their work place, at home or in a public space, they recount and then interpret their memory of a dream. These mistreated souls describe, in a poetic and political way, their subjective suffering at work. Bit by bit, the dreamers and their dreams portray a world dominated by neoliberal capitalism.
