Matheo Fernandes (b.2001), is a film director based in Paris, France

He once set out to become a chef, but his family’s old camera changed that. It led him toward anthropology, where he explored how different peoples tell their stories through food. In time, he realized he could tell those stories more powerfully through film than anywhere else.

With a strong environmental and humanist approach, he seeks to shift the way we see and imagine the world. He believes in real, handmade, timeless storytelling - rooted in culture and envisioned to endure.

His craft reflects this precision, blended with the insights he has drawn from his sociological research.

That is what one can expect from his work.
