About the artist
Passionate about cinema early in his life, Joachim Michaux naturally chose this medium after his business studies in France and Netherlands. For several years, he worked for a video edition company called Blaq Out, specialized in the diffusion of indie cinema. He then worked on more than 200 edition projects that came from every cinematographic horizon (French and foreign cinema, contemporary and patrimonial, fiction and documentary). This experience allowed him to significantly sharpen his passion for cinema and also to develop a heavy taste for documentary cinema in particular. In 2016, he met Emilienne Paponnet. Her personality, her journey’s singularity and the beauty of her archive movies that she entrusted him gathered in his life and helped him accomplish the dream project of his life: his first documentary movie.
