️ Requiem in white
With REQUIEM IN WHITE, Harry Putz stages a haunting cinematic homage to the dying of the glaciers in the Alps
The undignified death of our glaciers
Scientists agree that the glaciers in the Eastern Alps are irreversibly dying. Experts are warning of the changing conditions, and adjustments need to be made in many areas. But while the eternal ice is disappearing and the permafrost is dissolving, tourism is booming. In summer, visitors crowd into glacier lifts to get as close as possible to the glacier. In winter, skiing is in full swing and interventions in nature are taking on ever more drastic forms: Slope protection, covers, snow depots, artificial snow systems, massive terrain planning - a race against time.
With REQUIEM IN WHITE, Harry Putz stages a haunting cinematic homage to the dying of the glaciers in the Alps. Through in-depth interviews, he weaves science and emotion into an oppressive documentary. Shot at 14 glaciers in Austria, Germany, Italy and Switzerland, the film ends by posing the inevitable question: How do we want to say goodbye to our glaciers?
