I watched this movie yesterday… and it get’s the label “problem film”. It’s ok. But throughout the film I was waiting for some major action.

After a late lunch at Lily’s with friends from Bern, we went to see Vitus. A beautiful and poetic movie starring Bruno Ganz.
Saw this documentary about the Lake Victoria fishing industry in Mwanza, Tanzania:
The only group that Hubert Sauper didn’t interview were the employees in the fish factories…
But otherwise a fairly realistic and saddening description of life along the shores of Lake Victoria, showing how Tanzania exports hundreds of [...]
