REGIONAL FIRST FILMS PITCHES

DISCOVER THE REGIONAL FIRST FILMS PICTHES OF FIPADOC

Fipadoc Emerging Talents and ALCA give six young creators from Nouvelle-Aquitaine the opportunity to pitch their first documentary film project.

The teams behind the selected projects are invited to the festival to develop, define and strengthen the key narrative elements of their projects, with the support of two tutors: Catalina Villar (director) and Céline Loiseau (producer).

During this intensive program, project leaders work as a group, take part in one-on-one sessions and receive individual follow-up.

After two days of work, at an event open to industry professionals, the teams present their projects to a panel of broadcasters and producers from the region.

CÔTE SAUVAGE

Florence Peyrard

My whole family gathers at our house by the ocean. This summer may be the last with my grandmother. To face the losses ahead, I invite four generations of women to dance with me in the refuges of my childhood, threatened by rising waters.

AINSI MEURENT LES ÉTOILES

An ancient Native American war headdress awakens in me the memory of a dream that echoes my family history. As I trace the object's origins, I seek to understand the meaning of this vision. This quest takes me to the Black Hills in the United States.
