Ten Years

Four young people searching for their place in life and in society. Over ten years, the director observes how the protagonists, between success and failure, pursue their dreams, how they mature as individuals and gradually become who they are.

Max Frisch, Citoyen

Max Frisch was the last big Swiss intellectual widely respected as a “voice” in its own right – a character hardly found today. The film retells Frisch’s story as a witness of the unfolding 20th century, wondering if such “voices” are needed at all, or if we could do without them.
