Grounding: The Last Days of Swissair

Taglines

Overview

The demise of airline Swissair in 2001 was a huge blow to Switzerland's economy and to the country's morale. It was a sad day for Swiss history when the airline's fleet was grounded on 2 October 2001. "Grounding" is set during the last days of the doomed airline, and tells the story of manager Mario A. Corti's unhappy fate, the last, unlucky CEO at the traditional airline company, as well as of all those nameless people who lost almost everything in the maelstrom of Swissair's downfall: their job, home and their belief in Switzerland.

Grounding: Die letzten Tage der Swissair

Taglines

Overview

Der Film "Grounding" erzählt, wie im Untertitel erwähnt, von den letzten Tagen der Schweizer Fluggesellschaft Swissair, vom historischen Grounding ihrer Flotte am 2. Oktober 2001 und davon, wie es überhaupt soweit hat kommen können. Gleichzeitig schildert der Film das mit diesen Ereignissen unzertrennlich verbundene reale Schicksal des Topmanagers Mario A. Corti, dem letzten, glücklosen Chef der traditionsreichen Airline, aber ebenso das tragische Los namenloser Menschen, die im Sog des "Swissair"-Niedergangs beinahe alles verlieren: Job, Haus und ihren Glauben an die bisherige Schweiz.
