Gross und Klein (Big and Small)

Work:: Gross und Klein (Big and Small) (S1690714313)

Whisking us down a rabbit hole and into a wonderland-like world, Gross und Klein transports us to a hotel dining room in Morocco where Lotte (Blanchett) sits alone. Courageously optimistic and perpetually disappointed Lotte is in constant search for human connection. She is rejected by her husband, unrecognised by old friends and unfamiliar with her family. Whether she is outside a window peeping in or buzzing on an unanswered intercom this iconic protagonist never quite fits. Like Carroll's Alice, sometimes Lotte is too big for her surroundings and sometimes too small to be noticed within them.
