Once on the other side of the camera
Ursula and I were amazed when that happened Sunday window asked us if you could make a short film report about Ursula and me on the topic “Discovery of slowness”. The trigger for the request was ours Silence book, which has the theme of silence and thus the escape from the hectic everyday life.
We wouldn't exactly describe ourselves as masters at clearing out temporal spaces of slowness. But we are very aware of the importance of these breaks. And we are practicing taking time out again and again. Because as paradoxical as it may sound: a lot happens, especially in times of silence. Internal processes take place, important thoughts get space, unprocessed things become present and can be processed and processed. New ideas pop up in front of our inner eyes.
The film crew visited us in our small alpine hut while it was snowing. That was a bit logistically challenging, but Christof, Piet and Michi mastered it brilliantly and made a great feature. In the off-peak times there was room for great conversations, and it was also an exciting experience to be on the other side of the camera ;-).
