The Store - Frederick Wiseman (1983)

The flow of lingerie as manipulated by smoking suits in boardrooms. (They actually had meetings without PowerPoint back then!) Taste drafted and shaped in mirrored closets. Luxurious furs and jewelry justified with salesman's cooing. The guy in the elf suit keeps on keeping on. Wiseman's non-judgemental eye proves the weirdest people and situations are right over your shoulder.
