Back
From Paris to New-York City, our coproductions and productions are on the move !
Let’s start our trip with NewImages (June 9-13),
the XR & VR festival dedicated to innovative creative practices. For this year
once again, NewImages offers a new way to discover its selection: it will be
available at the Forum des Images in Paris, online via the XR3 exhibitions (at Cannes
XR and Tribeca Festival) and also in 20 other places around the world.
The StoryLab will present no less than 3 coproductions and productions !
In the official selection first of all, Lady Sapiens, a VR creation, and La
Petite Danseuse, a a lovely stroll through the Orsay Museum in augmented
reality (AR) showcasing a selection of master pieces which will be presented to
the public for the first time.
Then, Atomu, our VR adapation of a Kikuyu legend, which addresses the themes of
gender fluidity and Africa, will be projected out of competition.
With Atomu, we embark on an escapade to Annecy’s mountains and lake! The multi-player VR experience, playable with Quest headsets, will be presented during the International Animated Film Festival from 14 – 19 June.
The next stop on our itinerary takes us to the French west coast, where we meet at the 5th edition of Pixii, the International Digital Cultures Festival in La Rochelle. This year, the festival will take place in up to 5 of the city’s most famous places such as the Natural History museum. Lady Sapiens will be part of the official Sunny Side XR competition selection. We did say immersive experience, right ? 😊
The last
stop on our journey takes us across the Atlantic ocean, to the prestigious
Tribeca Festival in New-York City!
Awarded
Best Digital Fiction Series at the Luchon Festival in 2020, République, an interactive
film by Simon Bouisson and Olivier Demangel, is reserved the place of honour representing
the pride of French audiovisual colours in the official selection to be
presented!

Lady
Sapiens: Born 38 0000 years
ago, you are Lady Sapiens. A huntress takes you to her family to meet the Shaman of her clan and bring your
personal touch to a wall painting. Then, the clan offers to cut you a flint to
make your own spear. Equipped with your weapon, you take part in a mammoth
hunt. Despite commonly held beliefs, women were not confined to picking while
the men were out hunting… Welcome to the real Paleolithic !
A Little Big Story, Ubisoft and FranceTV collaboration you can discover through
a 360 experience in FranceTvLab.fr from end September.
Atomu: Atomu, places you at the cyclical center of a Kikuyu tribe legend, originally from Kenya, in which a man has the opportunity to become a woman and a woman can likewise become a man. This experience uses VR, dance, music and bodies to create a sacred space where everyone can be who they want to be and explore several parts of the soul.
La Petite Danseuse, When she gets out… : When she gets out… is an AR experience which takes us on a fantastic quest
through a selection of artworks from the Musée d'Orsay to follow the adventures
of Marie, the little dancer by Edgar Degas. Her mischievous silhouette wanders
through works of art, drawings, sculptures, so many magical worlds created by
artists, on which she casts a naive and enchanted gaze.
Scheduled for public release in October 2021.
