TALES OF SWISS INNOVATION: MODERATED CONFERENCE WITH NATHALIE NATH
16:30 – 18:30
This year, the GIFF pays tribute to one of the key figures in the media and cultural sector in French-speaking Switzerland: Nathalie Nath. In 1965, she joined Télévision Suisse Romande (TSR), where she created several programs aimed at young audiences, including Canal 18/25, an innovative magazine show that provoked strong reactions in political and media circles. The daring subjects of Nathalie Nath’s programs were perceived as subversive in the tense climate at TSR, and she was unfairly dismissed in 1971. However, she continued her career in the fields of communication, theater, and cinema before returning to TSR in 1994. Retired in 2006 but still passionate, Nathalie Nath continued to produce and direct until 2014. As part of the Festival, Nathalie Nath will give a lecture as well as a selection of programs highlighting her unique career and character.
We invite you to (re)discover a selection of programmes in their entirety, which Nathalie Nath will discuss during the conference:
The best of Ça colle et c’est piquant, with Maïtena Biraben (1995)
Louise, a woman free at her own risk, a programme broadcast from Canal 18/25 (1970)
La maladie de Walter, an investigative fiction set in a psychiatric hospital (1970)
