After portraits dealing on teenage sexuality (Water Lilies), gender identity (Tomboy), reinvention (Girlhood) and yearning (Portrait of a Lady on Fire), Céline Sciamma will be working with her youngest cast yet in Petite Maman. Filming on her fifth feature film began this week and last until the beginning of December on project that is likely filming in Paris on current lockdown. Details on the film haven’t been divulged but it features two eight-year-old children.
Portrait of a Lady on Fire cinematographer Claire Mathon (also Atlantics) reteam with Sciamma. Lilies Films is producing. This is not the only project currently filming with the “Sciamma name” as Jacques Audiard is currently lensing his ninth feature – one that was co-written with Sciamma. We’ll be updating this project over the weeks to come.
