BA. Film Directing (2020)

Yasmine Bahechar

Born in Geneva, Yasmine Bahechar, 26 years old, is a film director interested in documentary and fiction.
After graduating from high school with a degree in law-economics and visual arts, she took a sabbatical year working in a local café. Having always been immersed in cinema, it was in this particular café that she discovered her deep interest in this art and enrolled at HEAD in 2017.

A tous ces travailleurs (2017), is a mix of various archives mixing images from the Red Cross, others filmed during Eid at her home in Morocco and all guided by a poignant voice from a Moroccan film. A l’Ancienne (2020) is her first short film with the congratulations of the jury.
