On the occasion of the entry into the catalogue of ten new films by Camille Simon Baudry, the Collectif Jeune Cinéma is offering a retrospective of five recent films by the filmmaker.
For several years, Camille Simon Baudry has been developing a cinema that is sensitive to places, to plant life, to water, to beings: the cinema of a world of linked living beings. The healing of the violence caused by our way of life involves the evaporation of the boundaries between our body and the rest, through the intermingling of sentiences and elements, towards other worlds, for a new or renewed relationship to our existences in the earthly fabric.

- A Riddle From My Past Lives
Sketch, presage film, editing exercise. Under the impetus of Carlos Casas and the work of Wang Yuyan, Mary Helena Clark and Stefano Miraglia, an exercise in formulation from the angle of found footage.
Based on various videos recovered from YouTube (personal films, documentaries, filmed escapades, clips, film scenes, etc.), A Riddle from my past lives, an unsigned film, appears in a mystical surge to augur future works – and more particularly my latest film, The Light in my veins.
