Beschreibung
Explores the bleach-scented, dizzyingly over-lit world of a supermarket’s aisles, as austerity makes everyone within the store’s walls poorer.
Set against the backdrop of Britain’s austerity years in 2013–14, A Working Title follows the lives of exhausted supermarket employees whose struggles mirror the political and social upheavals of the time. Under the harsh fluorescent glare of Tesco’s flagship store, consumerism’s rituals and illusions are exposed in all their banality and menace.
At the centre is a nameless employee, cycling through the discarded name badges of his dismissed colleagues, gradually absorbing their identities and stories. As he drifts between shifts and the precariousness of temporary homelessness, his voice becomes a haunting chorus of the dispossessed—trapped in the surreal labyrinth of the modern superstore, yet still searching for dignity and meaning in the margins of everyday life.
