In addition, the dream is often enough reality is a documentary by Matthias Leupold and Jérôme Depierre about the Swiss photographer Hugo Jaeggi .

The film focuses on Jaeggi's art of photography, who describes his pictures and talks about their creation. His companions Martin Gasser and Peter Jaeggi are interviewed. The title of the film refers to the "powerful dreams" that are characteristic of his photographs: "Insights into the emotional world with which he experiences the relationships in his family and abysses in his existence and suffers again and again."

Depierre and Leupold's intention was to keep Jaeggi's photographic legacy in mind. The photographer was known for capturing the soul of the people he photographed with a sensitive documentary eye. The film shows how Jaeggi got involved with people and situations in order to create photographs that tell the “unheard of”.

The film premiered on May 24, 2019 in Venice (Los Angeles) and was shown on Swiss television and in arthouse cinemas.
