Feydeau biography documentary
- Mistaken identity, trysts, gun-toting jealous husband - in a hotel - make for fun.
- It's as though we're watching a live performance plus a documentary film at the same time, undercutting what's being said, problematizing simple.
- Georges-Léon-Jules-Marie Feydeau was a French playwright of the Belle Époque era, remembered for his farces, written between 1886 and 1914.

- Georges Feydeau
Georges Feydeau was born in Paris on December 8, 1862, the son of novelist Ernest-Aimé Feydeau and a Polish woman. He found his first success at the age of twenty-four with TAILLEUR POUR DAMES (LADIES' DRESSMAKER, 1889). That same year Feydeau married Marianne Carolus-Duran, the daughter of the famous portrait painter Carolus-Duran. To Feydeau, the marriage brought wealth that would sustain him until he found greater success. The marriage lasted fifteen years, after which the couple underwent a judicial separation and were formally divorced in 1916. Feydeau began a study of great farces in 1890, studying the works of Eugène Labiche, Henri Meilhac, and Alfred Hennequin. This study brought him success with his play CHAMPIGNOL MALGRÉ LUI (CHAMPIGNOL IN SPITE OF HIMSELF, 1892). Following this, Feydeau made a name for himself both in France and abroad. Among his sixty plays are his famous UNE PUCE À L'ORIELLE (A FLEA IN HER EAR, 1907), LA DAME DE CHEZ MAXIM (THE GIRL FROM MAXIM'S, 1899), and HORTENSE A DIT: "J'M'EN FOUS!" (HORTENSE SAYS, "I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!," 1916

IN : V Z B L # portrait of an Artivist
Artists in Romania have often speak to us about their fight against injustice. They also told us that discrimination is the cancer of social life. They wear a double mask: mask of Savior (who try to do the best in a mad world) and mask of fantom (trying to have support for their mission).
The invisibility of people with disability, and also of migrant people, the Roma community, the various forms of alienation of which they are victims, currently represent the most massive invisibilization in social life. Our documentary offers a plunging vision.
Since 2014 Ana has been an artivist, an artist who fights for more social justice, to prevent violence against people who are invisible and have specific needs in the cultural space. This born Artivist does not question her project of offering art in all its forms and to all audiences, sometimes putting her life in danger.
