SYNOPSISRoom 606The travelling salesman Jonathan Fisch peddles glass eyes. His journey takes him to the edge of the province, where he checks in to a run-down hotel. The attic room no. 606 has its pitfalls. Something rather peculiar is happening beyond the wall. Jonathan Fisch can expect a very turbulent night. A night that begins one evening in late Autumn and doesn’t end until Spring.

Zimmer 606Der Handlungsreisende Jonathan Fisch hausiert mit Glasaugen. Die Reise führt ihn an die Ränder der Provinz, wo er in einem heruntergekommenen Hotel ab-steigt. Das Mansardenzimmer 606 hat seine Tücken. Denn jenseits der Wände geht Sonderbares vor sich. Jonathan Fisch erwartet eine unruhige Nacht, die im Spätherbst beginnt und erst im Frühling enden wird.

Chambre 606Le représentant de commerce Jonathan Fisch fait du porte-à-porte pour vendre des yeux de verre. Ses déplacements le conduisent aux confins de la province, où il passe la nuit dans un hôtel miteux. La chambre mansardée numéro 606 lui ré-serve quelques fourberies. De l’autre côté des murs, il se passe en effet de drôles de choses. Jonathan Fisch doit s’attendre à une nuit agitée, qui commence à la fin de l’automne et se termine au printemps seulement.

Peter Volkart, Mutschellenstrasse 97, CH-8038 Zürich | [email protected]

Biographical information

Peter Volkart has studied visual arts and filmmaking in Zurich and New York. He has made independent short films as well as documentaries for television. He has created trailers and commercial shorts and has been col-laborating on numerous feature film projects as art director and editor. Since 2002 he runs a graphic design studio in Zurich specializing in motion graphics, special effects and all kinds of mixed media productions. Besides working commercially Peter Volkart has had various exhibitions in art galleries and art museums in Switzerland and abroad.

He was in the headlines for a brief period in the late 1920s: Igor Leschenko, the young physicist from Hermannstadt, whose bizarre experiments cast doubt upon the law of gravity. The debacle at the pataphysicist convention leads to a secret expedition to the point of zero gravity. Rare film documents of a hazardous journey beyond Zentropa through the Karfunkel archipelago. Will Leschenko ever find the Nanopol island?

Terra Incognita participated at over 80 international Festivals and received more than 15 Prizes. (i.e. FIPa D’or - Best Short Film, Festival international des FIlMS du monde - Montréal, Swiss Film Prize 2006)

On the move with Monsieur Sélavy. A film diary about the vicissitudes of existence and how to encounter them with dignity. A journey in which space and time coordinates become a bit tangled ...

The travelling salesman Jonathan Fisch peddles glass eyes. His journey takes him to the edge of the province, where he checks in to a run-down hotel. The attic room no. 606 has its pitfalls. Something rather peculiar is happening beyond the wall. Jonathan Fisch can expect a very turbu-lent night. A night that begins one evening in late Autumn and doesn’t end until Spring.

Should the government get involved in promoting and funding the arts? In the Sixties this question was avid-ly discussed in the small, sedate Swiss Canton of Aargau. ja ja, nein nein (yea yea, nay nay) – A film about a visionary patron of the arts, a performance artist who mysteriously disappears and a unique arts funding scheme.
