Reeto von Gunten with “2052 – further prepared”

Description

Reeto von Gunten with “2052 – further prepared” Everything the same? Not quite. Even in the retirement home, new things happen every day. And so Reeto von Gunten continues to write his diaries: the year is 2052, the rollator gang is bolder, the jackets more worn, hobbies quirkier, and plans more daring. Friends of “2050 – cleverly prepared” can look forward to a sequel, and new gang members are warmly welcome as he again depicts our absurd future in the retirement home. Of course, his Geronto-Gang still rules there, scheming with their pimped-out rollators and decorated jackets, driving the management crazy, and celebrating the joy of aging. “2052 – further prepared” is next-level Geronto science fiction. Mischief and high culture in one. Laughter loud and soft, thinking further and deeper, and realizing that you can actually look forward to the time in the retirement home. Reeto von Gunten is an author, spoken word artist, and radio host at SRF3, and tells stories as captivating and absurd as hardly anyone else. The “High Priest of Hipsters” (NZZ) with the “voice that can heat rooms” (Berner Bund) manages to create a kind of small art that excites, inspires, and resonates again and again. After all, we all get older eventually, more than we feel inside. By and with Reeto von Gunten. A production by Atelieer.
