David Maye

Christophe, Luca, Julien and Gaëtan: four young fathers discovering fatherhood. A father's eye explores the experiences of other fathers, showing in small ways the place they must claim in order to live their new daily life.

An ensemble portrait of the 2011 Swiss federal elections. Following the fate of three candidates from the French-speaking part of Switzerland, the film sheds light on the richness and complexity of the political ritual.

While his mother is fighting cancer, his sister announces that she is pregnant, and his father sets out to renovate the dining room, David Maye films. He films the intimacy of his family, the moments shared in the house that saw him grow up, between the vines of the Valais region, in the hollow of the mountains. The Sunday reunions, around his father’s cooking, the summer days in the flowering garden, together… He films, as if his camera could still hold back his family, keep it solid and close-knit, when everything is crumbling faced with the perspective of death.

Paul, fourteen, neglects his studies to spend all his time on his moped, to the consternation of his parents.
