Here is a documentary about the art of being lazy as a way of life in a world that is getting faster and faster. And it addresses a lot of things that you should actually think about in times of burnout and constantly increasing pressure to perform. In the sense: everyone comes down - and do what you want to do!
Felix Quadflieg takes the right to be lazy. He doesn't live to work, but works just enough to make a living. The 53-year-old teacher lives happily ever after with this attitude. Felix Quadflieg's biography is bursting with creative measures to refuse to work and idle survival strategies.
But he wants more: the co-founder of the “Association for the Promotion of Idleness” and his club colleagues are calling for the introduction of an unconditional basic income; because they firmly believe that real life lies beyond work. Would society be better, happier and more tolerable if one indulged less in the drudgery imposed by others and more in self-determined idleness?
After all, mankind was always particularly creative when it came to preventing work: Johannes Gutenberg was too lazy to copy books; Carl Benz was too lazy to walk. And Felix Quadflieg knows: It's good to live a life with little or no work.
