The Cobbler

Leave your life in someone else's shoes


The Cobbler
It looks like we're getting to see this ahead of the USA. It is about a cobbler who repairs shoes in the same New York shop that has been in his family for generations. Disenchanted with the grind of daily life, he stumbles upon a magical heirloom that allows him to step into the lives of his customers and see the world in a new way. Sometimes walking in another man's shoes is the only way to discover who you really are. Early reviews have been terrible.
