Over the Years

About This Movie

So, 'Over the Years' is this documentary that dives into the closure of a textile factory in Austria's Waldviertel. You start off with this vibrant, bustling place—machines whirring, workers at their stations—but as the story unfolds, it turns into a meditation on loss and identity. The pacing feels deliberate, almost reflective, which suits the themes really well. It’s not just about the factory but what work means to people’s lives. The way it captures the emotion of the workers, their pride, and then the stark reality of closure is pretty compelling. It’s raw and real, and you can’t help but feel the weight of what’s at stake. The atmosphere is tinged with nostalgia, and you really sense the impact of industrial decline on communities.
