Born in 1987. Lives and works in France.

Annabelle Amoros is a director trained at École Supérieure d'Art de Lorraine (2012), École Supérieure de la Photographie d'Arles (2014) and Le Fresnoy - Studio National des Arts Contemporains (2018). She first directed short school films, such as Welcome to My World (2013), La maison des Lilas (2016), Area 51, Nevada, USA, (2017), screened at numerous festivals in France and abroad.

Her productions are related to video art, cinema and photography. For each of them, like an anthropologist, she immerses herself for several weeks, months or even years in the lives of the characters who populate her films. This approach enables her to better define her issues - social and societal - to analyze situations and gain a better understanding of the place she films and the actions that take place there.

Her shots, generally stills, are combined with photography. They are mostly shot at twilight, offering to accentuate the magic, dreaminess, mystery, sometimes anguish, and theatricality of spaces and beings.

Since 2018, she has been collaborating with Clarisse Tupin at Paraíso Production, with whom she directed Churchill, Polar Bear Town, which won numerous festival awards - Special Mention at Clermont-Ferrand, Prix du Jury Jeune at Visions du Réel, Special Mention at IndieLisboa - and was nominated for the César for Best Documentary Short in 2023.

In 2023, she completes Tornades, which, along with Churchill, Polar Bear Town and Our Land of Enchantement, her next short film scheduled for 2025, will form a North American trilogy on our society of images and entertainment, imbued with fascination, absurdity and sometimes boredom.

Some of her works have been included in the collections of FRAC Alsace (Séléstat) and MAMCS - Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain de Strasbourg. They have also been exhibited at art centers such as FRAC Grand Large (Dunkirk), FRAC Champagne-Ardennes (Reims), Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature (Paris) and Musée de l'Histoire de l'Immigration (Paris).
