3 Layers of Work

Assembly line workers, ceramists and excavator drivers at an open-pit clay mine tell of their attitude and love for their own work - making cups. Over the course of a year, the film reports on workers in the countryside who have been doing the same jobs for decades and places of work that, just like their old-fashioned cups, have actually long since died out. Only in the porcelain factory of the assembly line workers is modernization taking place. Workers are being replaced by robots and perfect white cups are rolling down the assembly line without humans.
