David Induni was born in Argentina (Neuquén) in 1974.
He studied graphic design and sculpting at Josefina Conte College (Corrientes-Argentina); after one year in this scenery, where he had joined the artistic group Grupo Arte Ahora, he went to Córdoba and continued his studies at the National University, Department of Plastic Arts (Sculpture and Painting).
After three years he moved from theory to practice and expanded his knowledge by travelling around many different countries: Bolivia, Paraguay, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, Costa Rica and the United States of America, where he lived for six years on the islands of Maui, Honolulu and the Big Island of Hawaii.
Since 2003 David has been discovering Europe and has started a new professional path: film making. He graduated in 2008 at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUSPI) and has been working as teacher, independant film maker and artist in Southern Switzerland, where his family was originally from.

Director The relationship between the Swiss and their weapons, based in the concept of individual freedom, probably dates back to the legend of William Tell in 1290. Today, the Swiss are, statistically, the third most armed population on earth. In the heart of Switzerland there is a fascinating world of guns, bizarre characters, different perspectives, controversial ideas and, above all, an exceptional tradition that lives on.
