Documentary2026•1h 38min
Director: Wilfried Hauke
“Pippi Longstocking“ has been translated into 70 languages and sold more than 60 million copies. The film tells the story of her “mother“, famous Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. When young an still unknown, she starts a diary on September 1, 1939. Full of despair about the world, she is in conversation with herself and discovers the healing power of writing. As WWII ends with millions dead and the destruction of Europe, her first book about rebellious Pippi is published.
Fanny, Marie-Dominique, Céline, and Marie, four young women from Valais, share a passion: hunting. Over the course of a year, they juggle work, studies, and exploratory trips to the mountains. In a traditionally male-dominated field, they assert themselves in the face of prejudice while cultivating a deep and sensual connection to nature.
A street corner in Berlin-Moabit is changing: an aging supermarket is being turned into a construction site and eventually a new building. Shelves are being cleared, walls torn down, breaks taken, and money counted. Between refrigerated shelves, scaffolding, and exposed concrete, the film overlays the different versions of the place and allows them to exist simultaneously. Sometimes playful, sometimes eerie, repetitions emerge, like echoes between worlds.
