Zurich: Voices from the Church St. Jakob

On Sunday, 4 January, the squatters left the "Prediger" Church in Zurich and accepted an invitation by the Church "St. Jakob". By moving to this church, the preconditions for a talk set by the government official Hollenstein were fulfilled. On Monday, 5 January, Mr. Hollenstein received a delegation of Sans-Papiers for a talk.

In the short film, two migrants share their disappointment about the poor outcomes of the talk, once again explain their problematic situation and talk about what should happen next.

Further versions of the 8-minute film as well as download-links are available here:
