Switzerland

Movies

Swiss movies may seem modest compared to Hollywood, but it plays an important role in defining the country’s identity. While Switzerland didn’t have a film industry until the 1930s. The main reason behind this was because of the three main languages in Switzerland (those are German, French, and Italian). Due to this, the film industry in Switzerland continues to unfold in many directions. Many films in Switzerland showed the immense richness of Swiss traditions and customs. One of these films was directed by Leopold Lindtberg, which directed a pivotal movie called Die letzte Chance (The Last Chance). This movie was about a flight of Italian refugees coming to Switzerland and adapting their culture. This movie has not only made big numbers in its home country, but has made an impression in the US box office. These types of humanitarian movies might not be as popular anymore, but Many movies still showcase Switzerland’s beauty as a reminder to remember your origins.
