Alice Winocour is one of contemporary French cinema’s most distinctive voices, celebrated for her emotionally charged, visually precise, and psychologically rich work.
From the internationally acclaimed Mustang, to the intimate, high-stakes drama of Proxima, Winocour’s films explore ambition, identity, and human vulnerability with striking clarity.
Her latest feature, Couture, which will screen at DIFF 2026, continues this bold body of work. Starring Angelina Jolie, Couture takes a peek behind the curtain of Paris Fashion Week, from Chanel ateliers to the front row.
Join us for a rare opportunity to hear Winocour reflect on her creative process, career, and the ideas that shape her cinema.
