Cette semaine, Fifi vous emmène en balade à la Tour St Martin à Molondin sur le tournage du nouveau court métrage de Marie Camille Loutan et Valentine Coral (liveyouremotion.com pour découvrir leurs précédentes réalisations). Ce reportage est lʹoccasion de faire connaissance avec une équipe de jeunes dynamiques et ultra motivés. Leur objectif : arriver au bout de ce film ou lʹhéroïne part à la recherche dʹune ʹboite noireʹ au plus profond de son inconscient pour résoudre un tourment intérieur. Dans le premier épisode de ce reportage qui en compte 4, Fifi est accueilli au pieds de la tour par lʹassistante régie Claire Barroso. Avec la comédienne Chloé Mauron qui incarne la gardienne, il quitte ce camp de base. Ca discute et ça rigole sur ce chemin escarpé qui les conduit dans la forêt en contre bas où se tournent quelques plans. Non loin du set, il en profite alors pour tailler la bavette avec le régisseur Josua Hotz.
An ongoing debate is settled as Lachlan and Doug go head to head, mano y mano over one of the greatest film franchises of all time! (Disclaimer: Doug writes our episode descriptions). The entire episode confirms that; A: Doug would never have been able to pursue a career in law, not because of the many violations, but because he can't argue for peanuts; And B: Lachlan peaked on the debating team in high school.... Enjoy the episode! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/never-showing-podcast/message
