DIRECTOR
-Zeno Graton presents his first feature film. A young director trained at INSAS, he has already hit the bull’s eye with his end-of-study short film, “Mouettes” (2013), winning the Bayard d’Or for Best Short Film at the 28th edition of the Festival International du Film Francophone de Namur (FIFF) and the Coruja d’Or for Best Short Film at the Brazilian festival Cinerama BC. In 2016, he participated in the 33rd session of the Résidence de la Cinéfondation where he developed the script of his first feature film, which won the Special Jury Prize of the Sopadin Junior Screenplay Award in 2017.
