Züri brännt

The legendary film about the zurich youth movement of the 80s is a pamphlet and a document at the same time of a liberation of an entire generation. Street battles, naked demonstrations, punk music, living autonomy: The Zurich movement said good bye to the protestant zwinglian bourgeoisie and asked for life, room and money, subito! The movement opened a big space for creativity and changed Zurich in many ways. In the today multicultural and event-oriented city we cannot imagine how it was before.
