Adrien Louis hails from Haut-Doubs, in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, where it's cold and the trees are blue in winter, a remote but endearing place on the edge of the Jura mountains, bordering Switzerland. He has a degree in Philosophy from the Sorbonne and a Masters from the Université de Paris-Cité, which enabled him to attend the Ateliers Cinéma Diderot. In 2016 he joined the Fundamentals of Production course at Ardèche Images in Lussas.
In 2014, he co-founded La société de distribution du sensible, a collective of multidisciplinary artists. In 2015 he created the transmedia work Scénozica, which was performed in Paris and Grenoble. In 2017, he co-directed the documentary Scenopolis.
In 2018, he and Clothilde Bunod founded La Société du Sensible in Marseille, deciding to forget cold, remote regions to bring forth film projects in the sunshine, linked to the Mediterranean and overseas. He currently produces both documentary and fiction films. Finally, as an ever-renewed promise, he has the chance to return to Lussas on a regular basis by joining Les Films de la Pépinière in 2019, a cooperative structure and experimental production house, to look at film production through the prism of a collective and fraternal dimension.
He is currently developing his second documentary film, an adaptation of Aeschylus' "The Suppliants", with the residents of Marseille's 3rd arrondissement. He is a trainer at WharsatAflam, a writing residency for writers from around the Mediterranean.
