Time for some Swiss pride on the podcaststelle!

With Visages d’enfants, Jacques Feyder created one of the greatest Swiss films of all time. Released in 1925, we're celebrating its 100-year anniversary (!). Featuring one of the most powerful child performances ever captured on film and camerawork and editing that still feel fresh and innovative to this day, there's no doubt it stands the test of time.

We’re joined by our most frequent guest – at this point he has really earned the third chair – its Mischa! As always he contributes with his unmatched expertise, from Griffith to Soviet montage theory, to help us unpack this silent masterpiece.
