ALL ABOUT US

We produce discovery and anthropology documentary series such as lands of women, 4x52' dedicated to matriarchal societies, or Rituals of the world, 15x26', about traditional societies worldwide (Arte). We have also produced the multi-award winning serie Archeological Investigations (30 x 26') of which 14 different episodes were selected in international archeological film festivals such as Rovereto, Arkaïos, Bidassoa, Bordeaux, Narbonne, Toulouse or Licodia Eubea.
