Potz Millione (1981)
Martin Hugentobler is "full of oil" when he gets home. You could also say he is "full to bursting". But this time, for once, there's a good reason: he and his three fellow Jass players have been playing the lottery for years, always with the same numbers. Finally, their perseverance is rewarded: five correct numbers mean a thousand francs each. However, this time Martin's wife Leni has filled in the slip instead of him - and made a mistake. A stroke of luck, because the "wrong" number helps the Hugentobler family win the main prize - one and a half million.

Der 10. Mai (1957)
Der 10. Mai (The Tenth of May) was the date in 1940 that Hitler invaded the Low Countries: Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg. Neutral Switzerland, which hadn't experienced a war since the 14th century, hurriedly fortified its borders with battalions of inexperienced soldiers. The panic, confusion and isolated acts of courage which occurred on that fateful day are re-created in this Swiss docudrama. The story is "personalized" by concentrating on a fugitive German soldier (Heinz Reincke) who falls in love with the Swiss girl (Linda Geiser) who shelters him. Produced on a bare-minimum budget, Der 10. Mai is impressive more for its sincerity and raw energy than for its actual cinematic merits.
