Victor Missud’s practice arises from his engagement with people marginalised by their local communities and society at large. They become the protagonists of works straddling the boundaries of documentary, fiction and genre cinema. He uses the resulting friction between reality and artifice to explore collective dynamics, the conditions of coexistence and new ways of living. His latest films – *La forêt de l’espace*, *À qui le monde*, *Solenopsis Invicta*– have been screened and won awards in France and abroad – Centre Pompidou, IFFR Rotterdam, Visions du Réel, Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin, IDFA Amsterdam, Internationale Kurzfilmtage Winterthur, États généraux du film documentaire de Lussas.
