Born in 1990, Mathilde Parquet studied art at l’Atelier de Sèvres, then animation at EMCA school and La Poudrière, where she directed Louis (2013) and Little Man (2015), both selected at the Annecy Festival. She then started working as an animator and storyboarder on several projects. Trona Pinnacles is her first professional film, wherein she explores once again the strange, or even the fantastic, to express the interiority of her characters.
