We Want More in the Land of Unicorns

“Getting married, starting a family, growing old together. What constitutes a perfect life and how do ideas, longings and desires meet a consumer-oriented society that is always striving for better? The artistic documentary accompanies Julia and Xava at sales fairs on the topics of marriage, baby, pet and age. Between offers such as mommy fitness classes, the perfect wedding pictures or the smartly designed family SUV, they deal with role and gender images and the expectations that come along with them.
