About

Pauline Devesa

As a young woman director, I am very interested by human causes, human feelings and social issues. I was a volunteer at Red Cross and in a children’s hospital; it was an important moment in my artistic life.
I graduated in editing studies in France, then I moved in Canada, to have more work opportunities.
Now I manage my time to create short movies, and translate stories into pictures and feeling into sound.
