Young Man (Jeune Homme) Switzerland, 2006
Sebastien, 18, is running away from a family-owned printing firm future for an au pair job in Geneva with a modern and too busy family. Overwhelmed by the events, he gets attached, reveals himself and discovers what he really wants: to become a haute cuisine chef. He also falls in love with a girl he meets in Geneva. Yes, it is a very "family" movie, and it is actually quite entertaining. Sebastien comes from the German part of Switzerland, so half of the movie is spoken in Swiss-German, while the Geneva scenes are in French. It is rare to see a Swiss movie make this language alternations, but it adds to the originality of the film.
