CREDITS
Biography of Sarah Van Den Boom Born to a sculptor and a drawer, Sarah Brigaud was brought up in an artist studio. After completing literary studies, Sarah joined the Met workshop of Penninghen and then got a degree at the Ecole Nationale des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. The works of Fré-déric Back, Youri Norstein, Alexandre Petrov, and Satoshi Kon have provided inspiration. Alessandro Barrico, as well as with the young producer Luca Chiari, and the unfailing support from her husband and assistant Richard Van den Boom, all helped her to complete her first short film.
