Himself
Misto de ficção e documentário, o longa fala do Der Kreis, uma renomada comunidade de libertação gay, de Zurich, que floresceu em plenos anos 50. Ernst Ostertag e Röbi Rapp lutaram por seu amor, visto como tabu pela sociedade, com inspiradora coragem.
Matthias Böhi
Matthias is the illegitimate son of a factory worker. He lives as an indentured child labourer at his dictatorial aunt’s remote guesthouse. The only thing he knows in life are hard work and hard punches. After a sudden death, the unhappy boy finds the opportunity to make his way to his mother. In collaboration with SRF, Cinémathèque suisse, Memoriav and Praesens Film, ZFF once again presents a freshly restored version of a Swiss cinema classic. This 1941 literary adaptation is an almost forgotten jewel of Swiss film history that offers an impressive insight into Eastern Switzerland’s embroidery industry. Born in 1930, a later chapter of the main actor Röbi Rapp’s life was portrayed in the multi-award winning docufiction DER KREIS.
