"In the understanding of the complex cultural conditions of central Switzerland, I wanted to further explore through the film, who I am and what influences have influenced me. In the continuation of the contemplation of my homeland, I felt the need to come closer to the elemental of life and survival. So I went with the camera through my country and have taken everything that has happened to me. While working, I realized that the film is a reflection of my own spiritual needs. I've been trying to find an answer, to become aware of what my elemental sensations are that I believe are not different with my fellow human beings."-Langjahr
