“FÉLIXE - LES AUTRES” By Jean-Vital Joliat
Natasha, a seamstress and fashion designer, lives reclusively in her cottage, which serves as her design studio. As the days go by, a deep loneliness assails her.
From the Director
"During the pandemic, we all felt alone and in total lack of physical connection, which had an indelible impact on our mental health. With the music LES AUTRES by the artist Félixe, I wanted to address the theme of loneliness and withdrawal in a simple and authentic way by featuring a transsexual actress, the magnificent Pascale Drevillon. The staging is essentially composed of still shots leaving a lot of space around the character to symbolize her loneliness, while the cinematography is minimalist and meticulous at the same time in order to accentuate the realism sought to tell the story of this woman who decides to make an imaginary friend who exists only in her mind." Jean–Vital Joliat, director
