Sonja Wyss - Hoch-Zyte
"Hoch-Zyte" ("weddings", but also: "high times"), shows in a dreamlike setting three women and their fantasies and yearnings about marriage. An 11 year old girl is knitting a weddingsavingsock (Hochzeitssparstrumpf), and it is getting longer and longer, since a wedding is not in sight. She is dreaming and waiting for her prince, but he is not coming, not yet. A woman, she could be the girl's mother, dreams about her wedding long ago.A young maid, she could be just an illusion, but could also be the bride, dances with a man in a wedding dress through some scenes. Pictures of the conscious are mixed with symbols from the unconscious, parallel to reality there is a dream world, illogical and absurd.
The goat, dead crows, eggs, which are being bred under a table, a dancing couple and a girl, who is lying on the ground like sleeping beauty: these are symbols, which remind one of fairy tales and legends or ghostly dreams.
