Jonah who will be 25 in the year 2000 (Alain Tanner, Switzerland, 1976)
This film looks forward to the possibilities of
this, our new millennium, from out of the shadows of May ’68. A group of young people in and around Geneva tries to pick up the pieces of their
hopes in the wake of the ‘clampdown’ and corporate retrenchment.
Alain Tanner’s cinematic channeling of the utopian energies playing through the everyday lives of post-60s activists, and in their classrooms, too.
