Part of the Official Selection of the Festival de Cannes 2024 with her first feature film, Holy Cow (Vingt Dieux), which won the Youth Award in the Un Certain Regard section, Louise Courvoisier made a name for herself with this luminous film about love and cheese, acclaimed by audiences and praised by critics. After studying cinema, she directed her first short film, Mano a Mano, the story of a couple of circus acrobats, which won her the 1st Prize La Cinéfondation at Festival de Cannes 2019. Born into a freely cheerful family of artist-farmers, Louise Courvoisier draws her inspiration from what she knows, which means her land and her loved ones, to make a cinema imbued with modesty, accuracy and hope. Louise Courvoisier is currently writing her next film.
