Weniger isch meh - Housi Wittlin, Musiker und Poet

How do you cope if things turn out differently than you'd imagined? Helena (19) and Jonas (11) are people in great need of support, putting their parents, families, schools and society to the test. The film breaks down the wall that separates them from our world, shows how language and community develop - and asks the question of who we are.

Between 1950 and 1966, thousands of men set off into the high mountains of the Valais, into a primitive landscape of rock and ice. Here, they erected a temporary civilization. From here, they blasted the rock beneath the Matterhorn and other towering peaks to dig a 160 km-long labyrinth of tunnels to bring water from 35 glaciers to the world's highest dam: Grande Dixence. Miners and intellectuals such as the writer Maurice Chappaz retraced their steps through this endless black abyss in search of the places where the overcrowded barracks once stood, of which only a few ruins remain today. This is where they surpassed themselves.

In Protestant Zurich, people with money avoid flaunting it. Wealth fascinates, but it also arouses jealousy. Four wealthy Zurichers are in search of happiness: one man unexpectedly inherits a large sum of money; he tells no one about it and indulges in a luxury: he finally takes the time to live. For religious reasons, a woman from an old Zurich family renounces her possessions and inheritance. A "self-made" entrepreneur is constantly expanding his international business and living the good life. A welfare recipient relives, with mixed feelings, the days when money flowed freely. For years, he has been fighting a bank to repossess his fortune.
