Over the past seven years, Damien Manivel has worked as a dancer and ‘contemporary circus' artist. In parallel to his job as a performer, he has been a stage director several times, he has made short films and is the joint-author of Margo, by the Archaos company. His professional experience nurtures his cinematographic research; he therefore takes up human questions and touches upon the nature of human frailty by working in depth on what the body can express.
