Contexte et analyse
The private film by the Freiburg architect Curt Balke and his wife Käthe together with a group of travellers is typical of the emerging tourism after the Second World War and the Germans' longing for Italy. The Balkes traveled there several times in the early 1950s and documented it with their 16mm camera. The first shot shows the self-made information "Eastern 1955", which enables the clear dating. This is the beginning of the recordings of the Balke couple's Eastern trip with their VW convertible to Lake Maggiore across Switzerland to Italy. We see beautiful mountain landscapes and riverside roads along the Sempachersee and the Vierwaldstättersee. While driving, Käthe Balke films the passing landscapes from the car. They take a break on the shores of Lake Lucerne and set up a picnic. The picture shows a tunnel entrance with the coat of arms for the canton of Uri with the typical 'Uristier', an aurochs head with a red nose ring and a red tongue. At Lake Lucerne, Ms. Balke folds the blankets in front of the mountain scenery after a rest on the lakeshore. The car is then loaded in Kandersteg am Lötschberg with numerous waiting vehicles. This is also an indication that many others are drawn to the south. The Lötschberg tunnel is a 14.6 km long railway tunnel that connects the Kandertal in the Bernese Oberland with the canton of Valais. A train is already loaded for passage through the tunnel, and you can see the occupants in the cars. Balkes film the waiting train before they enter the tunnel themselves on their train.
The next shots again show beautiful snow-covered mountain ranges and a waterfall. On their journey through Switzerland, the Balkes reach the town of Bellinzona in the canton of Ticino, which can be recognized by the imposing fortress 'Castelgrande'.
