The Consulate General of Switzerland, in partnership with the Centre of European Studies at the University of British Columbia, docUBC and The Cinematheque present: 'SUOT TSCHÊL BLAU' [engl. 'UNDER BLUE SKIES'] (2020) by Ivo Zen.

[CH, documentary, 70 min, Swiss-German & Romansh with subtitles in English and French.]

Synopsis:
In the 1980s, hard drugs arrived in the picturesque Engadine valley and extinguished the lives of many teens and young adults. Zen’s powerful documentary affords space for a still-grieving township to engage in frank, vulnerable dialogue about substance abuse and the epidemic that claimed its children.
