Born in Lausanne, Switzerland. After studying at the Beaux-Arts de Genève, he moved to Paris, where he directed an episode of the fantasy anthology SABLE NOIR, produced by Canal+. A filmmaker working between animation and live action, his work explores the porous boundaries between the real and the imaginary, often drawing on myth and folklore. His debut 2D animated short DEATH AND THE WINEMAKER (2021) was nominated for the Swiss Film Prize and screened at over 50 festivals, including Clermont-Ferrand.
