- This is a portrait of a man and of a country, as he travels through it. He is a travelling salesman, and travels through Switzerland selling cosmetics to beauty parlors.
- A feature-length documentary, Kvadrat explores the realities of techno DJing, using the example of Andrey PUSHKAREV, a Russian DJ recognized worldwide. Filmed as a hybrid between a road-movie and a music video, the film not only illustrates the festive atmosphere of techno night clubs, but also reveals the lesser known side of this profession: weeks of track selection, lengthy travel, difficult schedule. The film suggests to reconsider the stereotype of a popular musician, to find out whether the artist is happy, to ponder what's most important to him and his audience? Shot in Switzerland, France, Hungary, Romania and Russia, the film omits the typical documentary elements: no interviews, no explanatory voice-over, no facts, no figures. The visuals and the techno music replace them, leaving the detailed interpretation to the viewer.
- In his book "Der schnurgerade Kanal" Gerhard Meier describes the writer K. as follows: "He left technical college early, got married and took on a temporary job in a factory - where he got stuck". In Meier's own case it was after dropping out of technical college that he got a job in the lamp factory in Niederbipp. After working in the factory for 33 years, he finally made up his mind to quit and become a writer. His wife started working in a kiosk in order to make a living for them both. The film asks questions about the sort of literature than can spring from a biography like Meier's. It shows the conflict of a provincial citizen who becomes a poet, and it accompanies the writer, who sees life in terms of eyeopening images, on his wanderings trough his immediate and extended home territory, including the island of Rügen and the house of Tolstoi's birth.
- Henning, a lonely watchmaker, is struggling with his social anxiety. When he meets the extroverted July, his world seems to change for the better. But everything is not as it seems.
