Filmed trance, sound
Shot in Super 8

Production: France

Release: 31st March 2022

Based on a proposal by Camille Guibert

Music: Outro Aho Ssan (2020)

On a proposal from dancer Camille Guibert, I went to Paris at the end of 2021, to film his choreographic creation work. For several years, he has been working to show trance and embody it, to bring it back into ritual and performance, and to transmit it through workshops.

I filmed one of his rehearsals and captured the trance process he usually performs in front of an audience. Thanks to this proximity and intimacy, I approached the body, observing it from different angles and in states we are rarely confronted with.

The film was shown at an evening of performances, during an exhibition and at international dance festivals.

Experimental documentary
Shot in Super 8

Production: Prague, Czech Republic

Release: 22nd October 2021

From March to June 2021, I lived in Prague and made a documentary for RockOpera Praha. I captured the daily life of the place, some recordings, the shooting of a video clip, a photo shoot. I also filmed the shows that were being broadcast live on Facebook (the operas were not yet taking place at that time). And I captured the details of this very special place. I played with the different speeds of my camera, mixing 18 frames per second and frame by frame, letting certain details last or letting the images follow one another. I captured lights, textures, composing with the work of the RockOpera artists, with their bodies, their gestures, their materials.
The documentary is split screen, alternating sequences of daily life and shows. It is accompanied by a music being created specifically for the film.

The film premiered on 24 June 2022 in Prague.

This is a film about encounters.
A film about details from these encounters.
About those stories that are gone.
Those stories that did not happen.
This is a film about desire.

This film was made during my Master's degree in Cinema at Paris 8 University, under the direction of Damien Marguet.

This film shows a wandering in different places, mixed with two masculine figures and a feminine figure dancing in the blur of a party. These masculine figures and these places embody the memory of these encounters evoked by the voice-over.
