Temple Road

Temple Road is a journey into the heart of womanhood, taking its name from the road that leads to the temple in the director’s hometown of Nyeri, Kenya. Inspired by childhood experiences, including women-only ceremonies and family Polaroid photos taken between the 1950s and 1970s, the film recreates a woman’s spiritual and ritual preparation. Weaving a dreamlike narrative, it blends the rituals of Kenya’s Indian heritage with the diversity of Kenyan cultures, reflected in a multicultural cast and intertwined ceremonies. Celebrating the sanctity of community, it creates a sacred space where women express themselves freely through rituals, song, and dance. Temple Road is both a tribute to the past and a call to recognize women as bearers of culture and tradition amidst increasing violence against them in Kenya.

Charlie Hebdo, Hyper Cacher - Les Trois Jours qui ont fait Trembler la France

On Wednesday, January 7, 2015, the Kouachi brothers entered the offices of the newspaper Charlie Hebdo and killed eleven people. They wounded eleven others and, during their escape, executed a police officer lying on the ground. A third terrorist then murdered four people in a supermarket. The impact of these events was profound, both in France and abroad. More than four million people took to the streets during rallies held on January 10 and 11.

Mineurs en peine, des procureurs en première ligne

At DIFAJE, the Family and Youth Affairs Division of the Bobigny Court, the duties of young prosecutors are the same, with one exception: they deal with minors who are either victims or perpetrators of crimes. For the latter, the prosecutor is the first person they deal with in the legal system, their first point of contact. He or she is the one who gives society's initial response to a young person whose future is already uncertain. Between prevention and punishment, the magistrate's role is a delicate one. He or she must combine authority with education. He or she must deal with the reality of a complex environment and with the differences and vulnerabilities of each individual.

Essai 21

Exhausted by his work and routine, a person decides to suddenly break his daily life and wander in unknown places, in which he gradually sinks and gets lost. Essai 21 is a film project of a certain magnitude in which I wanted to explore horror from another angle. The idea was to free myself from the codes of the genre by bringing something original, in particular through a specific choice of staging, a constantly disturbing atmosphere and an omnipresent contemplative aspect. One of the ambitions of this film was also to tell a story by following the protagonist's journey without ever making him appear, so as to arouse the imagination of the viewer as well as the different possible interpretations that result from it.
