Complicity – Initiate or interrupt the camera breaks something in the natural flow of the moment. Leave Stephan to tie him to the landscape in panning changes something. Looking back towards him, Stephan is yet always there…

Organs in the mountains – Hidden treasures gradually unveiled. All, do we hide anything? ?

His house – Intimate connection between the mind of a child and his dwelling place…

Better to laugh – Friendship and complicity for youth ! There is also the voice, what is said, the tone and timbre…

Mary : playing the game – This is one of the few times where I propose to the person who comes to the door to play for me for the film. Here, it had to allow allow Mary to “redo” her spontaneous behavior to ask her husband inside again and again for checking where are the dogs by . Mary, very spontaneous, indulges occasionally, But I'm not a fan of this method of filming…

How to tell… my life as a sled dogs driver (musher) !?

In front of the doors – Unwelcome thoughts while waiting for a door to open…

reason and felt – Someday I may know why the obsession to knock on all the doors. Patience ! each his way, It's what Philippe tells me ? Feel then comes the reason, at the beginning were the skin and air, then came the brain. Then he tells me about his son and his recovery from a serious illness, simple words, full of love, Necessary to show him without dismantling so without editing, it will be for next time…

There is something else – First person I film outside his door, Fabienne. After 12 years of peddling, let's go for a long serie ! My high-resolution Nokia mobile will capture those fragile moments in a user-friendly way… But the Act of taking the camera and initiate it interfers in the relationship that is established. How to solve this one day ?

Young men and petanque – I rarely meet people in their garden. But there, Yann and Alex are playing bocce… and it's an opportunity to get rid of the world and do it again. Could simple daily acts change something ?

Beyond the leaves oh the tree… (2012, visa CNC ) programming such kind of film was a consequent risk taking for these cinema operators. They played ball, and we are grateful. Still others would have done if Merlin Films had had more availability.

light and shade in Isérables – Some mountain villages seem like a dream when a light beam affects them and attracts my attention from the surveyed in hawking cosy gardens and neighborhoods.. In Isérables... yes, I forgot that a movie theatre had existed once upon a time.…
