Synopsis
“Electronic City”
“Tom and Joy, a neo-romantic love story from the start of the 21st century. Tom is a resilient and extremely flexible consultant whose only foothold is the porno channel in his hotel room. Tonight he is wandering around the corridors of a hotel complex. He’s lost his orientation and no longer knows where he is: Berlin, London, New York, Hongkong, Singapore. He thinks of Joy … Joy is a stand-in on the scanner-till of Prêt-à-manger International, someone who didn’t finish her studies, a flexible and adaptable colleague. Her dream is George Clooney. Tonight around two she is standing at her little till at the airport, paralysed with panic. Twenty businessmen want to pay for their sandwiches, but the scanner has broken down, the till is on strike, the system collapses. She thinks of Tom … They fell in love while fighting over the last place on a flight home to Berlin. They were arrested and locked up together; the start of a great love … Now her life is being filmed in a realtime docu-soap”.
