Terminus, Anse Dupuy

ANNE, young woman working in the film restoration department of the CNC in Paris, has been invited by LUC, a projectionist and a film collector, to fly over to Guadeloupe. Luc has discovered a film that might have been shot in Guadeloupe and could be dating from the silent film era. During her stay in Vieux Fort, Anne will discover the beauty of the island, the power of its nature and the men’s place within it.

This short film is the first film of Daniel Paris who has been working for the Ministère de la Jeunesse in Paris for about 25 years. All his career, Daniel has been actively involved in the development of cinema and filmmaking awareness among the young generations. One of is biggest achievements is the creation of the “Prix de la Jeunesse” at the Cannes Film Festival. After all these years – in Paris and more recently in Guadeloupe – helping the young ones for their personal development. It was time for him to make his own film: “Terminus, Anse Dupuy”, inspired by his years living on the French island Basse-Terre.

Julie naturally jumped into this project for its poesy and universal philosophy.
P’tites Madeleines Productions has been working with Fabienne Chomaud, producer based in Guadeloupe where the film was shot in January 2014.
