Julia Pinget studied History and then Documentary Cinema in Marseille as part of a “Métiers du Film Documentaire” Master’s degree. Since 2012 she has been developing her own documentary projects in which she examines the history of places and inhabiting them as an emotional experience. In parallel, she contributes to the programming of the Les Inattendus festival in Lyon, where she runs video and sound creation workshops. Since 2016, she has been living in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté and has joined the Ciné Pause association to bring films to rural areas. “Une place au soleil” (2018), her first feature documentary, describes the life of a place, a beach in the Camargue where working class families wild camp each summer and reinvent their own world. “After Work” (2020) is her second feature-length documentary.
