Event Description
Selected films at Teatro Santa Ana, La Biblioteca, every Wednesday in April
🎥Jonas Who Will Be 25 in the Year 2000 | 1976 | Alain Tanner
In French with English subtitles | Dur. 114 min
🎞Set in post–May ’68 Switzerland, the film follows eight interconnected characters— teachers, farmers, intellectuals, and dreamers—struggling to reconcile their revolutionary ideals with the compromises of everyday life.
Through conversations, shared meals, and shifting alliances, Alain Tanner constructs a mosaic of disillusionment and persistence. The “Jonas” of the title—an unborn child—becomes a symbol of uncertain hope, a generation that may inherit both the failures and aspirations of those who came before.
Balancing humor and melancholy, the film examines the distance between political rhetoric and lived reality. It is less about grand events than about the quiet negotiations of conscience, community, and survival in a changing Europe.
