First male to male sex in a public toilet in Biel, later, in Canada, a career in the hotel business, and at 51, early retirement in Tanger, Morocco: Jean Neuenschwander’s biography is anything but average.
Simon Bischoff’s film highlights Neuenschwander’s circle of friends and their intimate lives. Like other European expatriates at an advanced age, the Swiss appreciates the availability of the Moroccan “culs” who are a lot cheaper than in Canada. And the moral of the story? According to Neuenschwander, that money and sex rule the world. Bischoff’s film leaves this and other statements uncommented, and at the same time plays with partly documentary, partly fictional image-sound contrasts, letting the audience make their own opinion.
