Händler der Vier Jahreszeiten plot

As a fruit merchant, Hans Epp (Hirschmüller) drives his cart through the courtyards of Munich. His family despises him for his work and his wife (Hermann) is cool and reserved. Hans drinks too much and one day he has a heart attack. When he is well again, he hires his old buddy Harry. The trade is flourishing, but Hans feels superfluous and becomes increasingly depressed. In the end he drinks himself to death. Bitter melodrama based on Fassbinder.
