Program

Ascona

Storyline

ASCONA deals with a place that seems to have fallen out of time, has not changed since the 1950s, but still exists. A miniature golf course becomes an analogy of a social analysis. Reflecting the conservatism of the 1950s, ASCONA shows protagonists who tell of the beginnings and difficulties of the course and the sport between recreational fun and top-class sport with dry North German wit and represent a cross-section of society.
