BOLZANO: BOZEN – Storie di una città-heimat | Ge-schichten einer Heimatstadt

1997
Betacam SP | color | stereo
directed by Andreas Pichler, Susanna Schoenberg
produced by ZeLIG
Bolzano: a bilingual city, a city divided in two. But it is united by a common history. The film seeks out points of convergence, and finds them in the personal histories of some of Bolzano's inhabitants. People tell where they come from, what they're doing here, of their struggle to make a life for themselves - revealing a human aspect that historical studies so often neglect.
