AMERICAN CHRISTIANITY (United States, 2003)

The rise of the conservative Christian right over the past decade has left a deep impression on the internal and foreign policies of the United States. Robert Huber has recorded how strongly Christianity is intertwined with the American society. For instance, he visited a Christian hard rock festival and a Mormon training center for missionaries. Particularly the latter reveals how frighteningly Christianity coincides with the values of American capitalism. In Texas even the lines between church and state are blurred. Convicts who pray every hour receive preferential handling in the prison system.

HEIDILAND

In 2001 tourist resorts all over Switzerland focused on the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the death of Johanna Spyri, author of the world-famous children's book on Heidi, the little girl from the Alps. In every way possible they tried to satisfy the expectations of their clients, created through films and television series. That was no simple task. While Japanese are looking for Heidi's dog, Europeans look for her goats and Americans her cows. The result was a varied collection of Heidi sets.
