Festivals - FCAD 2021 : Discover the President of the Jury of the Deauville Revelation

By Mulder, 29 june 2021

"The close-up is a world - a revelation of souls” - Clémence Poésy 

In 2014, she was a member of the jury, last year she came to present Resistance by Jonathan Jakubowicz, today she seals her loyalty to the festival by agreeing to preside over the Revelation Jury. It will be up to her and her jury to reveal the next great American filmmaker of tomorrow for this 47th edition of the Deauville American Film Festival.

Immersed in the great bath of cinema since childhood, her international career began in England, where she played the Scottish queen Marie Stuart in Gunpowder, Treason and Plot before becoming, in the eyes of the whole world, Fleur Delacour, the Frenchie of Harry Potter. Between theater, cinema and series, she distinguishes herself by a multiplicity of roles that make her a key actress for foreign and French directors alike: Nicolas Pariser, Laetitia Masson, Philippe Ramos, Christopher Nolan, Rupert Everett, Stanley Tucci, Michele Placido, and of course Eric Toledano and Olivier Nakache who made her an unforgettable businesswoman in a relationship crisis in the series En Thérapie...

It is with naturalness that she passes to the realization. For the Paris Opera first with À bout portés (2016) directed as part of the 3rd stage, then with two short fiction films Le Roi des démons et du vent (2018) and Le coup des larmes (2019). This will be followed by a fourth film shot in the fall of 2020.

It is this view of an actress and creator without blinkers and without borders that we have chosen to chair the Jury of the Revelation 2021.
