Description
Marie Losier, a New York-based filmmaker born in Paris, began filming through portraits of the people she met in New York, documenting their lives through what she saw and felt after many years in theater and painting, which had a great influence on her. Then she blends her imagination to represent these characters or situations as in a living tableau. Always working with the materiality of film, which requires a certain way of doing things, her cinema develops a mystery, a magical moment.
"Everyday life was transformed into a kind of spectacle, into something theatrical. I think that's where life and documentary meet, without any constraints. The most extravagant people taught me so much!"
— Marie Losier
