Alice Dontenwille

Connu(e) pour Camille à corps perdu

Alice Dontenwille est une jeune cinéaste basée à Tours depuis 2021. Née en Haute-Savoie, elle grandit à Montélimar où elle découvre et pratique la danse contemporaine depuis l’âge de six ans. Mordue de cinéma dès l’enfance, après le visionnage en cachette de Suspiria de Dario Argento, elle se forme en montage image à la CinéFabrique de Lyon dont elle sort diplômée en 2020. Camille à corps perdu est son premier court-métrage à la sortie d’école. Dévoreuse de pellicules horrifiques et fantastiques en tout genre, Alice se passionne pour la distorsion du réel, la monstruosité, l’onirisme et la violence, qui imprègnent son univers avec la danse et l’idée de matérialité, venue de son background en arts visuels. En parallèle de son activité d’assistante monteuse de séries et long-métrages à Paris, Alice travaille à l’écriture de Carnation, un film d’époque chorégraphique sur la fin de l’innocence, et d’Insubmersible, un film surréaliste sur la dépression. . . . Alice Dontenwille is a young filmmaker based in Tours since 2021. Born in Haute-Savoie, she grew up in Montélimar where she discovered and practiced contemporary dance from age six. A film-addict since childhood (precisely, after secretly watching Dario Argento’s Suspiria aged merely ten), she learns film editing at CinéFabrique in Lyon, from which she graduates in 2020. Camille à corps perdu is her directorial debut. Devourer of horrific and supernatural films of any kind, Alice becomes infatuated with the themes of reality distortion, monstrosity, onirism and violence, all imbuing her world, along with dance and the notion of materiality, which she gets from her visual arts background. Parallel to her work as assistant editor on television series and feature films in Paris, Alice is currently writing Carnation, a choreographic period film about the end of innocence, and Unsinkable, a surrealist film about depression.
