Storia
Import Export follows two protagonists traveling in opposite directions for better opportunities.

Both struggle with self-doubt and the search for meaning as they navigate their journeys.
Riassunto
Directed by Ulrich Seidl in 2007, Import Export is a drama that explores themes of immigration, unemployment, and personal struggle. The film juxtaposes the experiences of its two lead characters, Paula and Emil, who travel in opposite directions across Europe in search of better opportunities. While the plot details are somewhat limited from available sources, it is clear that Seidl aims to portray the exploitation and hardships faced by emigrants seeking a new beginning.
