Focus on Laetitia Dosch
French-Swiss actress, film director and stage director Laetitia Dosch trained in drama in France and Switzerland before establishing herself as a leading figure in contemporary cinema.
Her film career began under the direction of Frédéric Mermoud in Complices (2010), then with Justine Triet, who cast her in the lead role in Vilaine fille, mauvais garçon (2011). This short film, which won the Grand Prix du Jury at the Premiers Plans Festival in 2012, was an early showing of her unique talent. That same year, at Cannes, she confirmed this revelation in La Bataille de Solférino (2012), where her performance alongside Vincent Macaigne was praised by critics.
In 2017, Laetitia Dosch brilliantly portrayed the character of Jeune femme in Léonor Serraille’s debut feature, which won the Caméra d'Or at Cannes. Her performance as a thirty-something woman seeking to rebuild her life left a lasting impression and cemented her status as an actress to watch.
In 2024, she diversified her career by starring in Le Roman de Jim by Arnaud and Jean-Marie Larrieu, while also stepping behind the camera for Le Procès du chien, her first film as a director, in which she humorously tackles the issue of animal rights. Virginie Ballet, writing in Libération, noted “her disconcerting blend of warm fantasy, sensitivity and deep reflection”.
At Premiers Plans, Laetitia Dosch will look back on the highlights of her career and present a preview of Mélisa Godet’s first film, La Maison des femmes (2026), alongside Karin Viard.
