Céline Sciamma

Grandiose auteur cinema: the director takes a differentiated look at gender roles and the struggle for female autonomy

Stories about growing up and first love have a long tradition in French cinema - just think of the classic “La Boum” (1980). Céline Sciamma was just two years old at the time. Born in Pontoise in 1978, she is now a filmmaker and author for a new generation that works with role models in a more differentiated way and courageously explores what it means today to be a girl, a woman and, above all, a unique individual. Her films take a differentiated look at gender roles and the struggle for female autonomy. With her clear style, her great narrative empathy and her technical precision, Céline Sciamma delights audiences and critics alike.
