LES APPRENTIS

Director: Frédéric Florey

TV doc series, 5x45 min, CH 2017, Close Up films / Radio Télévision Suisse (RTS)

"Les Apprentis" is a cross-section of five apprentices from across French-speaking Switzerland. From the mountains of the Pays d'en-haut to the hills of Neuchâtel, via the forests of the Jura, the plains of Fribourg and Geneva, we follow the fascinating journeys of young people in training. We'll see our young apprentices face up to the difficulties of working on the land, learn to handle the art of hairdressing, meet the demands of a master forester, learn about teamwork and demonstrate their patience and ability to listen. Whether in their first or final year, every apprentice will have to face up to successes, and all hope to complete their training successfully.
