Anaïs Volpé doesn’t fit under one single label, just as her project
Heis. She’s an actress, a filmmaker and a visual artist. Her debut feature film
Heis (chroniques) is premiering at the
LA Film Festival in June. This project, which also takes the form of a series and an art installation, strikes for its honesty and lack of pretensions. Anaïs faces us with the concerns of the millennials, who strive for autonomy in a time where the future is most uncertain. In this very introspective project, one can easily find their own struggles and thoughts portrayed perfectly on the screen, which in a way brings a certain comfort.
Heis is about the uncertainty of the future, making choices, nostalgia, the hope and the struggle... in other words, it’s about life itself, and about realising that, just as ourselves, it's full of contradictions and contrasts.
