Director Bio

Anne Huynh was born in 1994 and graduated from Institut Sainte-Geneviève (Paris) with a DMA in Animation Film. She met Jean Regnaud at the screening of the 1st season of the serie "En sortant de l'école" where she adapted the poem "L'école des Beaux-Arts" by Jacques Prevert. Linked by the theme of transmission, their collaboration starts with that first movie, "My Grandpa is Hiding", inspired by impressionnists and nabis paintings, as of a myriad of fortuitous encounters - as those made in a garden.
