Morgann Gicquel

Directing

Born January 30, 1990

This quirky French filmmaker has started directing films when she was 9 in her bedroom using plushies and LEGO for actors and sets. A storyteller at heart, with a passion for stop-motion animation and shooting on actual film (whether 8, 16 or 35), now with a Bachelor in Philosophy and a Master in film, she has directed over 30 shorts and two features. An activist for LGBTQIA+ rights and civil liberties, she always aims to offer a nurturing and safe work environment whether on set or at the office. To be fair, not much has changed since she was 9 telling stories in her bedroom one frame at a time.
