Sinopsis

Have a good day! focuses on the inner lives of cashiers in a shopping centre: showing what lies behind their mechanical “Good a afternoon!”, “Thank you!” and “Have a nice day!”. Their secret thoughts and biographies are turned into brief personal dramas. Embodying universal archetypes, the characters of the different sales clerks convey the predominant social landscape. The libretto is a revealing mosaic of spoken literary language and documentary.
