20 – 25 August

Thirty days of walking across Scotland: two longtime friends trek six hundred kilometres through the Scottish Highlands to reconnect with each other, renew their bond with nature and recover parts of themselves they had lost. Shot in expansive, luminous landscapes and driven by subtle, naturalistic performances, the film offers a careful, contemplative portrait of time’s passage, friendship and the small, telling details of everyday life. A meditative road movie that privileges atmosphere, silence and quiet emotional shifts.

Wednesday 9 September, 20:30

Directed by Ernst Zürcher and Jean-Pierre Duval, this documentary investigates a wild forest revered by ancient cultures and a source of inspiration for contemporary artists. Combining naturalistic cinematography and reflective interviews, it traces the relationship between humans and the woodland, and asks how to restore the Earth’s lost harmony. The film’s intimate visuals and measured pace offer a lyrical, sensory portrait of trees as living monuments and carriers of cultural memory.

Screening followed by a discussion with the two filmmakers, Ernst Zürcher, forestry engineer and author of Les Arbres, entre visible et invisible, and Jean-Pierre Duval, photographer, filmmaker and founder of Agence MUSEO.

Thursday 17 September, 19:30

En terrain neutre is a tragi‑comic investigative film that examines Swiss neutrality through the eyes of Stéphane and Mehdi. Blending intimate personal testimony with on-the-ground reporting, it maps the emotional limits of a principle tested by geopolitical pressure and moral dilemmas. Shot in a restrained, observational style with moments of dry humour, the film balances empathy and critique to unsettle assumptions and invite reflection on belonging, responsibility and the costs of neutrality.

Screening will be followed by a discussion with Jean-Daniel Ruch, former Swiss ambassador and co-founder of the Geneva Centre for Neutrality, and Carlo Sommaruga, Geneva’s representative in the Council of States and a member of the Swiss Socialist Party.
