1€, 3€

In 1€, 3€, in her typical, carefree manner Friedl vom Gröller films the huge piles of clothing at the market in the Italian city of Pavia, which are rummaged through every day by crowds, then appraised, and repeatedly folded back up again by the vendors. The narrative’s absurd climax is an argument between two young women over one of the thousands of tops whose sale price jumped from €1 to €3 within a week. (Christa Benzer)
