Olivier Godin

Olivier Godin studied cinema at Collège Ahuntsic, then at Concordia University. After graduating, he directed several films independently, developing a fragile, artisanal approach to filmmaking. His short films La boutique de forge (2012) and Feu de Bengale (2014) each won Best Canadian Short at the Festival du Nouveau Cinéma. In 2013, he was awarded the CALQ prize for Full Love, voted best work of art and experimentation. In 2014, a first retrospective of his work was presented at the Cinémathèque québécoise, the same year as the release of Nouvelles, his highly acclaimed second feature.
