Le Fric

Vincent Kucholl and Vincent Veillon are back on stage with "Le Fric", a new show that laughs at money and the economy. Money is always a problem. Whether we have enough, too much, too little or not at all. Even if we find it vulgar, it directs the desires, needs, relationships, the position of each in society. Its possession or not classifies men and women and defines their room for maneuver, the freedom to which they can aspire, the power which they have.

Au Café Romand

Uneasy, Gregory excuses himself to the restroom. While enjoying sudden quietness, his life takes an absurd and tragic turn when he discovers a mysterious object in the trash bin.

Banking District

Endangered Species

Excelsior, a ski-resort without snow.

Tschugger

Normally, the Valais cantonal police are concerned with minor details: runaway sheep and a presence at the village festival.
