The Pimp and His Trophies

Der Zuhälter und seine Trophäen

Directing: Antoinette Zwirchmayr

Synopsis

The first time I visited my grandfather’s brothel I was seven years old. We were sitting on a couch in the entrance hall and he was telling me a story. Just as the story was reaching its climax, he suddenly stopped speaking and left the room with two prostitutes. I looked over at my grandmother, whose gaze was empty, as if she were somewhere else.
