Discussions animées entre entendeurs de voix
Tristan Thil
Animated documentary | France | 2022 | 12 min
Instead of schizophrenics, they prefer the term voice hearers. Twice a month, they meet with Virginia. She has created and runs a discussion group for people suffering from this disease, which is considered incurable and whose name alone embodies all the fantasies about madness. With her, they tell the story of their lives with voices in their heads.
Tristan Thil was born in Metz in 1982 and lives between Metz and Marseille. After studying History and music at the Conservatory, he studied Fine Arts and graduated in 2007, after attending the FAMU (film and animation school in Prague). After a stint in animation studios, in 2010 he began directing documentary films, then writing scripts for comics (Florange, une lutte d'aujourd'hui published by Dargaud, and Congo 1905, le Rapport Brazza published by Futuropolis). Since his first documentary, Florange, l'acier trompé, he has always included animation in his films and, at the same time, has directed animated sequences for other directors.
