Movie Picture

Kev 2018

Everyone calls him Kev, this pale-looking redhead, who a social worker found, as a child, locked in a bedroom where he had only rays of sunshine to play with. Now a teenager, Kevin suffers from a form of autism so severe that the majority of so-called specialised institutions have long refused to take him in. Clémence Hébert followed him with her camera, from one place to another. She, who is gifted with speech and he, who lives without, tamed each other as peers with a lens as the only medium of recognition, which captures what palpitates, appears, withers, and recommences. A discontinued but living link.


Movie Picture

Le bateau du père 2010

When Clémence Hébert returns to her hometown of Cherbourg, she wants to film what remains of her father, who died in a house fire as a result of his alcoholism. A few photos, letters, family videos. By juxtaposing these archives with portraits of her relatives, she stages an encounter between past and present and attempts to reconnect with what she fled from. The camera passes from hand to hand, from parents to children, from the living to the dead... The family film is completed and the story of a lineage is revealed. Cherbourg is a port city and the men of this family are fishermen. "Le bateau du père" ("The Father's Boat") is a film about the father's grief, about childhood and paradise lost.
