“The oldest video library in the world.”
The documentary is a portrait of of the oldest video library in the world and its owner, Eckhard "Ecki" Baum. Baum opened the "Video Film-Shop" in Kassel, Germany in the summer of 1975. It all began in the Wolfsanger district with the sale and exchange of Super 8 films, that soon led to a bigger shop and some daring methods.
