It’s about a typical day in her everyday life, in which she deftly manages her household comprising a husband and father-in-law. As she takes charge of her day, she skillfully deals with a series of traveling salesmen, mostly her regulars; with whom she not only sharpens her wit, gets a glimpse of the outside world through their eyes but also exchanges genuine human warmth and kindness through the individual transactions. The film, Window Shopping, calls into question whether changing times and the emerging business practices bring a positive transformation in the lives of those involved in the disappearing occupations, or there is hope ?
