Movies, Germany/Switzerland

I like to watch movies that take place in<BR>the countries that I am planning to travel to<BR>in the near future. So I would like to have<BR>suggestions on some enjoyable movies to watch<BR>to &quot;get in the trip mood&quot;. Prefer no war movies unless it is something like Sound of<BR>Music, which I do not consider a war movie.<BR>All suggestions will be appreciated.

It is supposed to be at Eiger, but...
