Jonah Who Will Be 25 in the Year 2000
Directed by Alain Tanner
A reflective ensemble portrait of disillusioned idealists seeking meaning and community in the aftermath of the sixties, anchored by their collective hopes invested in a child.
A look at the lives of several men and women in their 30s as they confront the slim gains of the "revolutionary" sixties. Max, a dissatisfied copy editor; Myriam, a redhead into tantric sex; and Marie, a supermarket checker who gives unauthorized discounts to the elderly, search for renewed meaning on a communal farm. The title character, a six-year-old child, is the carrier of their hopes for the future.
