Synopsis
Never before had the world come to a standstill, nor had globalized society experienced such an upheaval. The lockdown will mark the history of humankind; how we will emerge from it, no one can yet say with certainty. Confinement, isolation, illness, emptiness, fear of the other, an uncertain future, unanswered questions.
More than thirty Swiss women and men filmmakers interpret the lockdown, responding to the global, Swiss, and local situation through the expression of their creativity. Confined to their own regions and homes, they produced short films for the web, some of which will be selected for broadcast programming. A national project realized with lightweight means and in a very short time. Seven directors represent the Italian-speaking region and the Canton of Graubünden.
