''Beresina, or the Last Days of Switzerland'' (German: ''Beresina oder Die letzten Tage der Schweiz'') is a 1999 satiric comedy film by Swiss director Daniel Schmid. It chronicles the story of Irina, a Russian call girl arriving in Switzerland, whose innocent attempt to live the high life there triggers unintended ''coup d'état'' in the country. The title ''Beresina'' refers to the ''Beresinalied'', a patriotic song used as the code for initiating the Putsch. The film is a black comedy where all aspects of Swiss life are satirized in anecdotes. The heroine deals with a retired P-26 officer who appears as her false "sponsor" and various sexual perverts at the top of Swiss social hierarchy. Their attitudes to immigrants are also depicted ironically. Even the national identity and modern history of Switzerland are caricaturized in the country's first ever ''coup d'état'' sequences. The film culminates with Irina's coronation as Queen of Switzerland. ''Beresina'' was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Festival de Cannes: Beresina, or the Last Days of Switzerland )〕 ==Cast== * Yelena Panova - Irina * Geraldine Chaplin - Charlotte De * Martin Benrath - Alt-Divisionär Sturzenegger * Ulrich Noethen - Dr. Alfred Waldvogel * Iván Darvas - Direktor Vetterli * Marina Confalone - Benedetta Hösli * Stefan Kurt - Claude Bürki * Hans-Peter Korff - Nationalrat Tschanz * Joachim Tomaschewsky - Alt Bundesrat von Gunten * Ulrich Beck * Ivan Desny - Rudolf Stauffacher * Schuyler Landolt * Hilde Ziegler - Frau Vetterli 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beresina, or the Last Days of Switzerland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
