Der Buchspazierer

A nine-year-old girl (Yuna BENNETT) loves to read and is still suffering greatly from the death of her mother. She has moved to the beautiful town of Velbert with her father (Ronald ZEHRFELD) and there she meets a strange older man (Christoph Maria HERBST) who delivers very special books to very special customers every day. After a few difficulties, the two outsiders become friends. Together they work as "book walkers".

Based on the novel of the same name by Carsten HENN, a film fairy tale has been created that fits perfectly in a time when orange knick-knacks are sold instead of books. Great fun for young and old!

Beautiful pictures from the wonderful town of Velbert, crazy scenes from the Movie Park in Bottrop and great actors like Maren KROYMANN as Mrs. Longstocking and Edin HAZANOVIC as Mr. Darcy! Pure feel-good cinema that also makes you think.

And the venerable bookstore, which is gradually transformed by the branch manager (Nikola KASTNER), who speaks in a confused mixture of German and English, into an ORANGE BOOKS STORE, where mainly non-books are to be sold to customers: This is very close to reality if you visit any metropolitan bookstore on one of the luxury shopping streets in the German-speaking world.

Not a cinematic masterpiece, but a beautiful and imaginative film for the whole family!
