Antiquarian booksellers are part scholar, part detective and part businessperson, and their personalities and knowledge are as broad as the material they handle. They also play an underappreciated yet essential role in preserving history. The Booksellers takes viewers inside their small but fascinating world, populated by an assortment of obsessives, intellects, eccentrics and dreamers.

Reviews

Pays warm-hearted tribute to the reading, but also the shopping, the rifling, the obsessing, the complaining, the dreaming, the list-making, the shelf-organizing, and everything else book-lovers love to do.

Elizabeth Weitzman, TheWrap

A documentary for anyone who can still look at a book and see a dream, a magic teleportation device, an object that contains the world.

Owen Gleiberman, Variety

A treat for anyone who appreciates the printed word.

Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
