Story
A warm homage to literature and life: Christoph Maria Herbst is »Der Buchspazierer« in the film version of the eponymous bestseller. Day after day, Carl Kollhoff (Christoph Maria Herbst) stands in the back room of a bookshop, carefully wrapping books before delivering them to his regular customers. Books are the great love of this shy, taciturn man. On one of his tours he meets 9-year old Schascha (Yuna Bennett) who then sticks to him like a limpet. He unwillingly accepts the new companion on his delivery runs who calls him the »Buchspazierer« (book-walker). Schascha soon finds a place in the hearts of Carl’s customers and even brings him to break out of his own world.
