About This Movie

Haeberli offers an intriguing glimpse into the life of a man caught in a seemingly endless legal battle, set against the backdrop of the opulent yet stifling atmosphere of St. Moritz. The documentary unfolds slowly, mirroring the protagonist's drawn-out struggle, with a tone that oscillates between dry humor and poignant reflection. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to absorb the nuances of his character – a happy cynic, as the title suggests – who navigates bureaucracy with a blend of frustration and resilience. There’s a unique charm in the way it captures his lateral thinking, contrasting the pristine luxury around him with his own dilapidated living situation. It’s a film that quietly lingers, much like the persistent issues it portrays.
