"The Boat is Full"
1981
Directed by Markus Imhoof

We follow the plight of a group of Jewish refugees, desperately fleeing the holocaust, who have crossed over into neutral Switzerland.  It is the summer of 1942 and the Swiss government, alarmed at the vast numbers of people fleeing Nazi Germany, has set up immigration policies so stringent that they have declared the country "a full lifeboat." Complications arise when a Swiss innkeeper's wife takes in a group of frightened refugees. A haunting film from noted Swiss Filmmaker Markus Imhoof. "Virtually a flawless movie….One I will not soon forget!" (Jeffrey Lyons). French and German with English subtitles.  100 minutes.
