- Summary:
- The tiniest glimmer of hope slices through Swiss filmmaker Francesco Rizzi's critique of affluent, alienated Swiss society. Under the discordant buzzing of Zeno Gabaglio's sinister electronic score, Rizzi creates a world of industrial landscapes and minimalist office buildings, through which our protagonist Michael glides as though coated in Teflon. A vision of contemporary Swiss life so icily dehumanized as to be borderline dystopian.
