Anita Hugi is the Editor of the Art documentaries’ program “Sternstunde Kunst” and Editor of
documentary films for “Sternstunde Philosophie” for Swiss Public Television SF since 2005.
“Sternstunde Kunst” is a weekly program of selected creative documentary films in the wild field of
art: factual documentary films and creative in-depth portraits of artists in photography, architecture,
literature, music, art, video art, new media, counter culture.
It broadcasts 45 selected documentary films a year, 2/3 of the films are from international production
(sales and some presale, rare coproduction) and 1/3 coproduction, which mainly should fit within the
so-called ‘swiss-aspect’ (and/or swiss filmmaker, swiss producer). “Sternstunde Kunst” is the third
hour of the three hours program “Sternstunde” of SF and a background program: 3 x 1 hour in-depth
program on Art, Philosophy, Religion.
I am also programming a handful of documentary films a year for “Sternstunde Philosophie” (55
minutes), which normally airs in-depth talks: factual documentary films and/or portraits of female or
male philosophers, philosophical issues, economics, sustainability, equality matters, etc.
Schweizer Fernsehen (SF) is the Public Broadcaster of german speaking Switzerland. There also are
TSR (French speaking) and RSI (Italian speaking). The three of them and the radio broadcasters
together form the SRG SSR idée Suisse.
2/3 of the films we can co-produce are also co-produced by the Pacte de l’audiovisuel, the
coproduction fund for films coproduced by independent producers and SRG SSR.
