THE STATION IN-BETWEEN (PAXMAL)

Two gay men set out on a train journey after losing a common friend to a homophobic attack when life slowly catches up with them. This short film starring known Swiss actor Carlos Leal and Peter Fischli is the third part of a small trilogy depicting quirky Swiss pecularities. They stand on its own and work as a trilogy. It started in 2019 with the satire GARDEN PLOT (“Pünt”) about threats against a community of allotment gardeners followed by ALPINE GETAWAY (“Maiensäss”) in 2020, a black-and-white comedy about the overbooking of an Airbnb in the mountains. THE STATION IN-BETWEEN (“Paxmal”) premiered at the Oscar-qualifying Flickers’ Rhode Island International Film Festival and is distributed worldwide by Gonella Productions.
