SCHNEE
Germany 2012 – Director: August Pflugfelder – Original language: German – Length: 75 min.
A quiet, essay-like journey into the expansive world of the winter sport industry. What happens behind the lifts, the snow cannons and the heated outdoor pools? What happens beyond the pistes during the summer and wintertime? This is a calm observational piece that raises questions without making evaluations. Instead of finger wagging, the film leaves it up to us to contemplate the natural mountain resources that we have appropriated and our responsibility towards them. Impressive, with bold images, silent and inquiring. Adele Kohout
