Spring update

“The it.Aliens” will be shown at the Grenzlandfilmtagen festival in Selb, 8th-11th April. The closing program SwissDiamonds will also include “Der Augenschein des Amtsgerichts” by Albert Klopfenstein 1939, “Darf die Schweiz nicht verlassen” by Clemens Klopfenstein 1966 and “Weg nach Rio” by Lukas and Clemens Klopfenstein. Lukas und Clemens will be present in Selb.

The good old “Geschichte der Nacht” is having an unexpected revival!
The movie will be shown at the Videoex-Festival in Zürich in May. Then it will also be presented in Basel during the public lecture “Geschichten des Lichts” by Prof. Ute Holl in the Stadtkino on May 31st. On June 20th at 19:00 it will by shown in Biel, at the Centre Pasquart.
And the hollandish TV DOC will broadcast it as well.

If everything works as planned, Lukas and Clemens will be shooting three shorts this summer:

• “Eine nachtlang Filmgilde” a tribute to 60 years of Film Guild in Biel,
• “Jean-Jaques meets Henri” for the 300th birthday of Jean Jacques Rousseau, surprisingly meeting Henri Rousseau “le douanier” on the island of Biel,
• and then a bonus-movie clip about the town itself.

Two new novels by Clemens are being published:
“Die Leichtigkeit des Schweins”, 285 pages
and
“Zucker und Salz”, 290 pages.
