Short Film/Drama, Switzerland 2020

Not available in your country
It is a sunny Saturday afternoon in Zurich. In the middle of a crowded square, a businessman lies on a bench, apparently asleep. Elsewhere, a teenager seeks attention. A commuter struggles against the cash machine. The film shows ten images of everyday situations in the city. The people there face big or small problems and each of them is a Sisyphus, constantly rolling the stones of everyday life to the top of the mountain.
