Olivier Babinet is the filmmaker behind cult series Le Bidule and the feature Robert Mitchum is Dead, which premiered at the 63rd Cannes Film Festival. He has since written and directed three features, most recently 2022’s Normale. His documentary Swagger - which follows eleven young people growing up in France’s underprivileged housing projects - premiered at Cannes to critical acclaim. Babinet’s unique sensitivity to human interiority has led to memorable work in commercial campaigns - including spots for IKEA and Johnny Walker.
