A film by Donatella Bernardi

• 55 minutes

Every year since 1948, the Swiss Institute in Rome welcomes six artists and researchers benefiting from an ideal environment to develop their cultural competence and enhance their career under the aegis of the Swiss government. Is it a privileged site for the training of an elite or a holiday camp at the public expense? This is what Donatella Bernardi sets out to discover on the occasion of the Institute’s 60th anniversary, through interviews with several of those present for the event who have made the Institute what it is.
