Reviving Swiss mountain communities - Is there a future for these isolated regions? | DW Documentary

Only about 650 people live year-round in the Onsernone Valley in Switzerland. Surrounded by picturesque but rugged nature, life here is not easy for the inhabitants. And one of the top priorities is ensuring the availability of medical care. The road through the valley winds its way for 28 kilometers through narrow hairpin bends. Much of the area can only be reached on foot, and with considerable physical effort. There is no supermarket.
