FAIR TRADERS cinema release in Western Switzerland

FAIR TRADERS by director Nino Jacusso will soon be screened in cinemas in Western Switzerland. The inspiring documentary about sustainable entrepreneurship will be released on the 24th of July.

Haarig/Pile Poil on TV

HAARIG by director Anka Schmid will be broadcast on RTS on 2nd of June 2019 10pm. On the 4th of August 11:55am the film will be shown on SRF.
In a playfully biographical manner, Anka Schmid recounts her generation’s hairy stories. Whether as a body ornament, political statement or even in the soup, hair is omnipresent – even when shaven. With an ingenious fusion of real-life and archive footage as well as stop-motion technique, the animadoc explores body hair and discovers the tremendous potential of the body’s wispiest part in daily life and in art. A tingling feeling on the head is included.
FAIR TRADERS in cinemas

FAIR TRADERS will be shown in cinemas, starting on the 14th of february! The higher the number of audience during the first days, the longer the continuance in the cinemas... So if you wanna see this socially commited film, the best would be to do so as soon as possible.
There will also be special showings in several places in switzerland and germany.
Premiere FAIR TRADERS

We are looking forward to the premiere of FAIR TRADERS at the Solothurner Filmtage. The documentary by director Nino Jacusso focuses on three protagonists who are struggling for ethically and ecologically sustainable food or textile production and trade relations on a local or global scale. We'll be there to raise our glasses to a good start for the film.
Sunday 27th of january 2019 | 15:00pm | Landhaus
Wednesday 30th of january 2019 | 12:00pm | Reithalle
We just can't wait for the Solothurner Filmtage anyway. A whole week of films, encounters, drinks...
