Nossa chasa

A short documentary by Manuela Steiner

With the family's old Engadine house, filmmaker Manuela Steiner and her sister have also inherited the mission to preserve their Romansh mother language - but there seems to be no place for it in their lives. A cinematic search for one's roots in a globalized world.
