Emmanuel Marre

Emmanuel Marre (1980) pursued a master’s degree in literature in Paris before joining the Institut des Arts de Diffusion in Belgium in 2004, where he earned a master’s degree in directing in 2008. He lives and works in Brussels, dividing his time between documentary film and fiction. Marre pursues a freer working method based on writing while shooting, close to documentary, in direct contact with his creative material, the actors, the environment and life in all its splendid chaos.

In different living rooms in Brussels, parents cut their children’s hair. We witness intimate moments between toddlers who resist or completely surrender to the tender ritual and parents who want to succeed in their delicate task.
