A television reporter and the subject of a scientific experiment to investigate the sense of time underground fight for survival inside a natural cave system after a landslide blocks the exit.
Valeria hates commissioned photos such as passport or wedding photos because, in her opinion, they are dishonest. She looks for honest faces. Valeria scares the customers with them, so she has to earn her money as a waitress. She begins to have doubts about her own pictures because they are not accepted. In the café, she is offered a job with a fashion photographer. Through their acquaintance with Valeria, Paul and Poupoune realize that their projections have little to do with reality.
The film tells of the radical life-search by the Swiss writer Paul Nizon, born 1929 in Bern, Switzerland, who became what “he was meant to be” in Paris. Now 90-year-old, Paul Nizon grants insights into his life and work in a self-ironic, direct manner. The intimate portrait of a great literary outsider emerges, for whom the risk of life and the risk of writing merge into one and the same work of art.
This warm documentary narrates the intense life of Alfonsina Storni. A polyphony of intentional voices to account for the impossible: the first person who narrates to refer to the voice of the poet; his great-granddaughter recites from the present; several testimonies of their biographies explain their behaviors, their positions, their tendencies. However, the interesting thing is that nobody can give an exact account of who Alfonsina was and how she thought.
Directed by Christoph Kühn.
