    My Life as a Film

    Wie mein Vater versuchte, das Leben festzuhalten

    Master Film

    Das Leben drehen (Filmstill), Eva Vitija, Zürcher Hochschule der Künste, Eva Vitija

    When I came of age, my father gave me a film about my life. It infuriated me, because I had attempted to get away from his camera all my childhood. My father, filmmaker Joschy Scheidegger, documented our family obsessively. It was only when he died that I was impelled to take over not only his extensive film archive, but also his camera. My film is a personal search for the surprising truths hidden behind my father’s pictures. A philosophical family story about filming and the attempt to capture life.
