My father worked in the 1970s for the French Nuclear program in Moruroa atoll. I’m going to visit him today with my family in Rurutu, a small isolated French Polynesian island, where he’s retired with my mother, his dogs and his memories. I make this secret past surface as I question it today.

After a DEA in Cinema at the Sorbonne, Paul worked for two years as a pedagogical manager at the “Centre Européen de Formation à la Production de Films”. Then he decided to "make films" and to work in the meantime as a technician on film shoots, as an assistant or as a production manager, he started to write stories, documentaries and fictions. He wrote and directed three documentaries for Paris-Première and Arte about the musicians George Clinton, Abbey Lincoln and Terry Callier, and four short fictions, “Ina”, “Mes quatre morts”, “A l’arraché” and “Nevermore”. He became a reader-consultant for the cinema direction of Canal +, and settled in Rennes, where he still lives. He continues to alternate between fiction and documentary. He produced in Tahiti “Paradise”, his first feature-length fiction film, released on July 29, 2020. He just finished “Moruroa papa” and began writing a second feature film.
