A bakery in Herat in Afghanistan. Twelve hours a day, seven days a week, a dozen employees and apprentices repeat the same gestures, while the camera raises questions about the outside world, about images.
Bread is the very stuff of life and an everyday miracle. In this meditative, mid-length documentary, fixed on a single bakery in Herat in Afghanistan, director Guillaume Bordier’s camera focuses on the hypnotic and repeated gestures of its employees, as they mix, knead, stretch and bake.
