After a notable career at StudioCanal, Canal+, and Wild Bunch—where she notably produced City of God by Fernando Meirelles and Kátia Lund, Madame Satã by Karim Aïnouz, and Hey Good Looking! (Comme t’y es belle) by Lisa Azuelos—she has continued to support ambitious and socially engaged projects. These include Women Are Heroes by JR, selected for the Critics’ Week at Cannes, Bright Days Ahead (Les Beaux Jours) by Marion Vernoux, the series Vernon Subutex, adapted from the famous trilogy by Virginie Despentes, as well as collaborations on the theatrical documentary Sale Race by Tania de Montaigne and Stéphane Foenkinos. Trained in anthropology at the Collège de France, where she discovered Jean Rouch’s cinéma-vérité, she pays particular attention to stories that question our times and, in doing so, illuminate who we are.
