BIO / FILMO

TU ES MA SOEUR PRÉFÉRÉE!

YOU'RE MY FAVORITE SISTER!

EMILIE + SARAH BARBAULT

Emilie et Sarah Barbault sont soeurs, nées dans le milieu du cinéma, ont grandi sur les tournages de films.

Emilie a assisté - dans le ventre de sa mère- au tournage de “L’enfant sauvage” de François Truffaut où leur papa faisait partie de l’équipe. À trois mois elle a été le bébé - Alphonse - d’Antoine Doinel dans “Domicile conjugal”.

Sarah est née pendant le tournage du film de Jean-Luc Godard “Tout va bien” - leur père, directeur de production, passait de la clinique au bureau de production qui se trouvait dans la rue d’à côté, demandant et disant : « Tout va bien » !

Une mère, Tootsie Guéra, écrivain, née en Suisse d’une mère américaine et d’un père Suisse, Jean-Pierre Guéra, cinéaste. Un père français, Armand Barbault, producteur de films. Emilie et Sarah ont vécu en France et en Belgique, et par périodes, aux Etats-Unis. Après le bac et des premières options de vie - Droit pour Emilie, graphisme pour Sarah - la bifurcation s’est faite: le cinéma. En attendant de faire leurs propres films, elles ont travaillé plusieurs années sur des films, téléfilms et séries.

 

 

Emilie and Sarah, sisters, were born in the french film industry.

Emilie was present - in their mother's belly - at the filming of “L’enfant sauvage” by François Truffaut where their dad was a crew member. When she was three months old she played Antoine Doinel's baby - Alphonse - in “Domicile conjugal”, also directed by François Truffaut.

Sarah was born during the shooting of “Tout va bien” directed by Jean-Luc Godard (their dad whom was Godard’s producer manager then, spent his time between the hospital and the production office which was nearby).

From a Brooklyn New Yorker grandmother, a Swiss writer mom, Tootsie Guéra, and a film producer dad, Armand Barbault, Emilie and Sarah, who grew up on sets, and moved a lot between France and Belgium, and a bit in the US, chose to make films. After graduation and several life options - Law school for Emilie, Graphic design for Sarah - the junction was made: cinema.

As they waited to make their own films, they both worked on films, TV movies and TV shows.
