written & directed by Thomas Imbach
The film explores the destruction of a unique train station in Zurich and the construction of the new prison and police centre in its place. From the perspective of the filmmaker’s window, and with testimony from prisoners awaiting deportation, the film probes how we deal with the extinction of history and its replacement with total security.

NOTHING BUT THE SUN
In an attempt to preserve fragments of their disappearing culture, Mateo traverses the arid and desolate Paraguayan Chaco. He records on cassettes the experiences of other Ayoreo who, like him, were born in the forest, free and nomadic, without any contact with white civilization, until religious missionaries forced them to abandon their ancestral territory, their means of subsistence, their beliefs, and their home.
