The Timeless Legacy of Thomas Heise, Through the Lens of "Übergang" As the 2024 Locarno Film Festival prepares to showcase Thomas Heise's final documentary, critics and audiences are abuzz about the project's potential.
The film, titled "Übergang" (meaning "transition" or "passage"), represents both a culmination of Heise's life's work and an exploration of time, transience, and the human experience.
The narrative threads together new footage, archival material, photographs, and text to create a complex portrait that is as much about Heise's own story as it is about the tumultuous times in which he lived.
