Synopsis Olga and Paul represent two individual destinies and two opposing directions. Both are looking for work, a new beginning, an existence, life. Olga comes from Eastern Europe, where bitter poverty is the order of the day. Paul is from Western Europe, where unemployment does not necessarily mean hunger, but a personal crisis nonetheless: lack of orientation and a feeling of uselessness. In the East and in the West, respectively, the two protagonists are struggling to gain confidence in themselves, to find meaning in life. Both travel to a new country, where they are confronted with its abysses. The topics of Import Export are sex and death, living and dying, winners and losers, power and helplessness, and how to give the teeth of a stuffed fox a professional cleaning.
