Sparschwein

"Sparschwein" is a self-mocking film about double standards, where filmmaker Christoph Schwarz documents his self-experiment as an environmental activist and navigates the blurred lines between idealism and material gain. The movie playfully critiques capitalism through Schwarz's own story, which raises questions about what problems we clear away versus the new ones we create. As Schwarz juggles his long-term experiment with his financial situation, he must confront his own desires and priorities - a role that is notably played by himself in the film.
