Born on December 31, 1979 in Paris, Éléonore Saintagnan lives and works in Brussels. A graduate of the Le Fresnoy national studio, she makes short and medium-length films that play with the border between documentary cinema and fiction. Her work articulates notions such as belief and knowledge, craftsmanship and new technologies, history and myth, expertise and amateurism. Her films are peopled with both actors and characters playing themselves.
