- Shepherds’ Journey into the Third Millennium YIDFF 2003
Dir: Erich Langjahr
SWITZERLAND / 2002 / Swiss-German, German / Color / 35mm / 124 min
A look at the daily lives of a family of shepherds in Switzerland, set against a mountainous backdrop. A flock of several hundred sheep wanders through snow in search of fresh pastures, crossing roads and negotiating traffic. Lambs are born under the gaze of the shepherd’s wife and children, who spend day after day milking by hand and making bread. Shepherding is said to be one of the oldest professions in the world, and we are shown its harsh and hard-working lifestyle with a steady gaze.
