Switzerland is still one of the richest countries in the world. But there are cracks in its foundation, argues director Jan-Eric Mack.

“During the pandemic, we started seeing people lining up to get food. It was an unusual sight in Switzerland, where you don’t see poverty on the streets that much. But these numbers are rising,” he says.

“People don’t talk about it, but so many of them are affected. Especially single mothers.”
