It's through photography, and notably her collaboration with Nan Goldin, that Valerie Massadian came to image-making,Creating slide- show screenings (The Link, Mary Go Round, Journal de Bord), exhibited in Tokyo, London and Porto. What she has retained from photography is its freedom and the rigor of frontal contact. She has taken this same approach, committing to a project from concept to completion, in her collaborations with several film directors. From there came the need of her own film, NANA, which won the Price for Best First Feature Film at the Locarno Film Festival 2011, as well as the Price for Best International Feature Film at the Festival Internacional de Ciné de Valdivia.
