Rue du Conservatoire

Movie

Starring Clémence Coullon, Valérie Donzelli, Claire Lasne Darcueil, Alexandre Auvergne

In 1996 I took the conservatory exam. I missed it. A year ago I was asked to do a masterclass on acting in cinema. I went there. I met a lively, joyful and passionate youth. Among my students there was Clémence. The following year, she asked me to film their last show. I felt her urgency and the fear she had of leaving this mythical place. So I accepted.  By filming this youth, I revisited mine.
