Camopi one

Synopsis

Camopi One is an island documentary at the crossroads. In Camopi, a village of French Guiana facing Brazil, only accessible by the Oyapock river, resound the low, thick and piercing sounds of the tule clarinets, the main musical instruments of the Wayãpi Amerindians and the foundation of their culture. Music and image are woven into a multi-voiced narrative, where generations and civilizations confront each other.

THE DIRECTOR

Laure Subreville

Laure Subreville is a video artist, visual artist and director who lives and works between Bordeaux and Lyon. A 2017 graduate of the École des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux, Laure Subreville spent a year at Le Pavillon, an international creative residency in Bordeaux in 2018. She was able to work with Ange Leccia and develop a singular project around a first collective of men wrestling. In 2022, she directed her first documentary Camopi One, in French Guiana. Social, ethnological, community, identity and political issues have become major issues in the artist's videos and films and are now the foundation of her work.
