Schlafsand (the sand that makes us sleep) is here our refutation of the existential threat linked to human induced climate change. Shot in Switzerland, a land famous for its breathtaking mountain landscapes and its comfortable living standards, the film investigates the visual evidence of this denial. From a coal mine to a dying glacier, the film uses pictorial beauty to address the political and social blindness surrounding climate change. (International Film Festival Rotterdam)
