Patricia Mazuy

Born in Dijon in 1960, Patricia Mazuy went to HEC business school to satisfy her father's wishes. She was mainly involved with the school’s cine-club, which confirmed her love of westerns and thrillers. She left for Los Angeles where she shot a short film with money she earned as a babysitter and met Agnès Varda and her editor Sabine Mamou. The latter hired her as an intern on Demy’s A Room in Town. After editing Varda’s Vagabond, she made her first feature, Thick Skinned.
