About seminar guests:
- Hubert Charuel:
Born in 1985, Hubert Charuel grew up in the family dairy farm. He took a different path and graduated in the production department from France’s prestigious national film school La Fémis in 2011. After several short films, he directed his first feature film in 2016, BLOODY MILK.
Its first script was reviewed and completed at Angers European First Film Festival. Acclaimed thriller BLOOD MILK was then presented at Cannes Critics’ Week and eventually scooped 3 French Césars Awards including First Film César Award in 2017.
- Emmanuel Morice & Nicolas Thomä
Emmanuel Morice and Nicolas Thomä met in 2016. Passionate about cuisine, wine and life, they decided to direct an original documentary on the Loire Valley in France. THE KITCHEN WITH THE RIGHTEOUS portrays the restaurateurs Gerard and Catherine Bosse in their exploration and celebration of culinary traditions, living wine as well as river products from the region.
With only 5 days of shooting, 20 hours-long of rushes and a 300 hours-long editing under its belt, the documentary was acclaimed at the closing of Angers European First Film Festival in 2017. Referring to their first feature direction, both co-directors advise that “one can do well with nothing, do even better with just a little, but ought to do it now anyhow” (« Faire bien avec rien, faire mieux avec peu, mais le faire maintenant »).
