"Doug & Walter"
Kurzfilm
DOUG & WALTER is about the bizarre road trip of two outsiders in the midst of the Swiss hills. Doug and Walter are an uneven couple. Doug, a US American in his 50s with a burnout has just been fired. Driven by an outlaw fantasy, he wants to paint the town red. Walter, his former co-worker, is a shy guy and admires Doug for his bold behavior. Together they hit the road and run from adventure to adventure; with fatal consequences.
