THE ELDERLY GENTLEMAN’S ULYSSEE: IN TWELVE DAYS ON FOOT FROM ZURICH TO GENEVA
SYNOPSIS.
A smarter, older Gentleman hikes from Zurich to Geneva. On hiking trails, whenever they exist. But the declared goal is to reach the destination, the Café de la Place in Meyrin, as soon as possible. The adventures and encounters are more unforeseen than expected. The experience brings smiles, laughter, and a sense of achievement. But also unpleasant, tooth grinding, and suffering. He has much time to explore his thoughts and follow the thought processes caused by the events. He inevitably ends up in complex, exuberant pipe dreams and bizarre, surreal spheres. Very often, he is sent into the virtual desert for his thoughts. Which he isn’t concerned about. He wanders, ponders, and continues to provoke, undeterred.
