Nicolas Besson (*1970) is a pastor of the Reformed Church of Vaud and holds a degree in theology and a MAS in educational sciences from the Universities of Lausanne and Geneva. He worked for 15 years as a parish pastor in Morges and 11 years as head of human resources for his cantonal church. Today he divides his time between chaplaincy in schools in Nyon, interventions at the University of Lausanne in the context of the training of leaders of religious communities and the implementation of a project to enhance the value of people and their contribution in companies. He is passionate about the question of meaning in daily life and, as such, is a fervent visitor to the Visions du Réel festival.

The Hof Film Festival is now in its 58th year and has become a hallmark of the city, which is why Hof likes to call itself the “Home of Films,” a phrase that is said to have originated with Wim Wenders. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the Munich film scene came to Hof (...). As a nostalgic reminder, this year there was a 35mm screening of Fassbinder's early work “Gods of the Plague”. Peter Paul Huth reports about the festival.
