Coward

Born in 1976, I grew up in a family of 10 children with very cinephile parents.

Initially attracted by the cinema of reality, I completed a Master's degree in creative documentary filmmaking (Creadoc), under the guidance of director Mariana Otero. I shot a documentary entitled "A la maison", in which I tackled the question of filiation by following a young pregnant woman who gives birth to her fourth child at home. Ultimately, my aim is to show how the family unit shapes us from the very first day of our existence.

Following on from a photographic workshop, I shot a documentary film at a job placement in Marcoussis, Essonne, entitled "Rebondir" ("Bouncing Back"). By following the careers of five people with atypical profiles, I question the meaning of the word "integration".

After documentary filmmaking, I turned to fiction in order to master character acting and write my own dialogues. I have made several films for the Nikon Festival, the Mobile Film Festival, Paris Courts Devant and TF1's Imagine competition. These films enable me to develop my characterization, improve my directing and strengthen my commitment to comedy.

To improve my skills, I took part in an acting course at the Maison du Film Court, directed by A. Prioul (3 weeks). I learn the subtleties of acting and the need to clarify my intentions. I also attended a workshop on screenwriting (directed by J.C. Baumerder and J.P. Ronssin) and took part in R. McKee's Story seminar.

At the same time, I'm embarking on a career as an actor. I attended the Blanche Salant and Paul Weaver international drama workshop in Paris, and I regularly act for TV and film.

In 2021, I'm creating a collective of actors called "Demain on réplique". We organize professional meetings with casting directors, directors and scriptwriters. A time for collective work and research.
