Amélie Bonnin

Amélie Bonnin’s work straddles the border between different disciplines. After studying graphic design in Paris and then Montreal, she trained in screenwriting at the Fémis. Depending on the project, she uses writing, video and drawing to shape stories.

She directed two documentaries, La mélodie du boucher (Arte) and La bande des Français (France 3, co-directed with Aurélie Charon).

 

In 2021, she wrote and directed Partir un jour, her first short fiction film, which became a feature film of the same name, screened at the opening of the Cannes 2025 Festival.

Alongside her projects as writer-director, she continues to work as Artistic Director, designing the layout for the magazine La Déferlante.
