Nach dem Sturm

About This Movie

Nach dem Sturm offers a unique lens on the 1968 protests, juxtaposing the urban chaos with the often-overlooked social changes in places like Central Switzerland. The film’s pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection that contrast with the intensity of the protests. What’s striking is how it captures the essence of dissent beyond the usual hotspots—showing how even quieter communities were swept up in the tempest of change. The use of archival footage blended with modern interviews provides a haunting sense of continuity, making the past feel disturbingly relevant. It's not just about protests; it’s about the broader societal shifts, and the film does so without grandstanding, instead opting for an intimate portrayal of its subjects.
