Reflections and revelations on one of North America's most popular institutions : the enclosed shopping centre.
Mixing nostalgia, architectural ambition, social aspects, pop culture and politics, the film travels from North America, the mall's origins, to some of its newer counter-parts in Poland, Japan, India and Dubai. Walking among shoppers and workers of many tongues and cultures, the film wonders, "Is there possibly only one true language at the mall - the one where money talks?" Ironic, sobering and visually stunning, this surprising documentary offers a trip to the mall like no other.

This film is offered in two versions:
* the original 78' version
* a 49' version directed by Olivier Montoro for Canal+
