When the overbooking of a chalet in the snowy mountains lead to differences among the guests, the landlady’s much-needed five-star rating isn’t the only thing at risk.
This short film shot by Sebastian Klinger is the second part of a small Swiss trilogy about the meaning of home. Its predecessor «Pünt» told the story of a community of allotment gardeners struggling against a real estate investor. Filled with rich colors, «Pünt» is a dark comedy with an interesting ending twist. Contrary to this «Maiensäss» is draped in dramatic black-and-white while maintaining a strong comedic mood with an equal interesting ending twist. This trilogy of short films will be concluded in 2021 with the tragicomedy «Paxmal» («The Station In-Between») starring Carlos Leal. To watch the first film «Pünt» («Garden Plot») click here.
