Can anybody think of a story in which major stuff is happening, but the characters are only worrying about minor things?
Like, a chick living in war-torn WWII Germany who's worrying about her hair or something.

Also: a story in which the features of a bureaucracy are in place, but in which the bureaucracy actually has no hold. Like in The Trial; Kafka is arrested and put on trial but he doesn't have to go.

Anybody? It can be any sort of media... A book, a movie, a play, whatever.

There's a movie about Medgar Evars with Whoopie Goldberg in it that kind of follows that second plot. Can't remember the name of it. It deals with the early-mid 20th century South. The bureaucracy would be the white folks. Kind of a loose fit, I know, but I'm not sure what you need this for.
