Philipp Haas

After studying Anthropology, Literature and Film science, Philipp Haas worked with indigenous healers in the South of Mexico. He observed how the Mayan was diagnosed through the pulse. In Chinese Medicine, he found a way of learning it himself. He, therefore, studied at the Chiway Academy in Winterthur, Switzerland, where he works and teaches today. He searches for answers about medicine, life and nature in his films.
