Director

Eugène Green

Eugene Green founded the Théâtre de la Sapience in 1977. His drawers contain a great deal of unpublished work: plays, poems, stories. His first film, « Toutes les nuits », won the Delluc Prize. His 2001 mini-film, « Le Nom du feu » was presented at the Locarno Film Festival in 2002. He is currently working on an essay, « Présences » (to be published in autumn 2003), on the relationship between material and spiritual reality in cinematic representation.
