A film by Agnès Patron
Produced by Sacrebleu Productions
SYNOPSIS :
That very night, houses will burn. Men and women will tremble. Hordes of children will come together and howl as they dance alone on the ashes like wild bears. It only takes one cry to awaken them all from their slumber!
ABOUT THE DIRECTOR :
Following her studies in animation at the Ecole Superior des Arts Décoratifs, where
she directed her first two painted animated shorts LA VALSE DU PENDU et LA VEUVE
CAILLOU (official selection in Clermont Ferrand, Dresden, Stuttgardt, Animafest et
Annecy), Agnès Patron worked in the animate teaser of Florence Mialhe feature film
LA TRAVERSÉE as well as the animated sequences in Nadine Buss documentary
D’ORIGINE ALLEMANDE. She then co-directed CHULYEN HISTOIRE DE CORBEAU
with Cerise Lopez, a short film awarded in numerous festivals in France and abroad
(Grand Prix Animatou, Grand Prix at the National Animation Film Festival, Special
Price from de Jury Hiroshima…). For her most recent film, L’HEURE DE L’OURS, she
worked at Ciclic alongside some talents from the animation team that helped on her
previous project CHULYEN.
