Born in Montreal in 1961, Jeanne Crépeau has spent the past 20 years exploring different types and formats of film, outside the commercial trends. Parallel to her studies at the Université du Québec à Montréal (communications), the Canadian Film Centre, and the Sorbonne Nouvelle, where she completed a master’s degree in film in 2005, Jeanne Crépeau apprenticed her craft with such filmmakers as a Jean-Claude Lauzon, Léa Pool, Chantal Akerman and Jacques Doillon. From video installations to animation, taking in documentary and fiction films, Crépeau’s eclectic path has allowed her to develop a personal style, full of humour.
