Reviews

  • “As in his excellent debut, Christoph Schaub also deals in his second feature film with friendship between men and the difficulties of separating from the past. In expressive, poetic images and with relaxed, slightly melancholy humor, the dialect film tells the difficult process of detachment and parting. Christoph Schaub, together with his screenwriter Martin Witz, seismographically records the emotional state of a generation between adaptation and resistance. ”- Der Bund , 1991
  • “At the age of thirty, Schaub filmed one of the most unusual Swiss films of the last year against Swiss reality. Franz, Nick and Thomas are actually melancholy-romantic, almost old-fashioned characters who have long been replaced by representatives of a more pragmatic and performance-oriented generation - "a generation of summiteers" (Schaub). "- Guido Münzel Berner Zeitung , April 4, 1990
  • “Christoph Schaub's films are as important for Swiss cinema as Stephen Frears'“ Ghetto Films ”are for the new English. Here it is not the dream factory that dreams of its audience, but the author of his experiences. Like Frears in Hanif Kureishi, Schaub has found an incomparable screenwriter in Martin Witz. A stroke of luck. ”- Helmut Schödel, Die Zeit , May 18, 1990
