VINCENT GALLET

I am a french film-maker and actor. My work in films is a kind of anthropological and passionated quest, which, through fiction and documentary tries to seek the secret soul of arts; wether it is through visionnary art (Following Dreams an divinities), Flamenco (Manuela / Flamenco / Duende), cabaret (O Solitude), contemporary dance (Instants d'accord) or south indian ritual forms (Theyyam, The world of Kutiyattam).
