"Apocalypse Baby, We Advertise The End Of The World" is a famous Teleshopping Show in the year 2050. The two moderators, Franzi Star and Camille Cool, present the new products that should help humankind to survive the climate apocalypse. A pop satire about consumerism and climate crisis, about global warming and individualism, about hedonism and guilty conscience, about the contradictions inside of us.
“A great many of us engage in this kind of climate change denial. We look for a split second and then we look away. Or we look but then turn it into a joke (“more signs of the Apocalypse!”). Which is another way of looking away.”
Naomi Klein (This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate, 2014)

LES SAUVAGES / THE WILDS
Dir. by Camille Tricaud & Felix Herrmann
Experimental / Documentary. 12 min, 2019
A philosophical portrait of situationalists Herbert Holl and Kza Han, who believe in revolution through art. They live on an island where they have written poems and translated the work of Alexander Kluge. Together they enter a landscape with gestures and artifacts as their considerations for symbols and individuality permeate though film sketches from their everyday life.

WICH WAY TO THE WEST
Dir. by Kristina Kilian
DOP by Camille Tricaud & Felix Herrmann
Fiction / Documentary, 36 min, 2019
Die Jury des Deutschen Wettbewerbs in Oberhausen begründete ihre Entscheidung so: "Ein Film über eine Filmemacherin, die einen Film über ihre Auseinandersetzung mit Godards 'Allemagne Neuf Zero' dreht: Das klingt ganz schön 'meta, meta, meta' (um es mit 'Which Way to the West' selbst zu formulieren). Ist es auch, ziemlich meta, aber als Verschränkung von Hommage, Selbstzweifel, Film- und Deutschlandrecherche erweist sich der Film auch als ganz schön komisch und als Suche, die wirklich ins Offene führt. Es ist eine große Stärke von 'Which Way to the West', dass der Film, dem Meta zum Trotz, nicht vor allem smart sein will. Erst das macht ihn klug."

COUZ
Co-directed with Rabelle Erian
Documentary, 30 min, 2016
"Sometimes I ask myself, if it's worth it. And I think: Yes. You can't say you've had a youth, if you've never chilled on the street, on the same bench with your friends for hours and hours. In these moments and places, you see everything." What would you do, if you were 17, in Marseille, school was over and summer felt like an eternity? A group of youths spends day and night together. All the while, their everyday stories are transformed into rap-texts. This film is a portrait of friendship and language. A portrait of a group, with its own rules and dynamics. A portrait of a time, summer time, free of commitments and open for new things to come.
