Valerie von Sobel, 80, draped in Haute Couture and mystery. Locked up in California mountains during a global pandemic, a prodigal son tries to portray his spiritual mother.

As a child, Guillaume THOMAS wanted to be a magician « Magic does not exist, » said the grown ups. Determined to prove them wrong, he took up a camera. His quest has taken him on a journey to document those brave and enchanted souls who are unafraid to express the multiplicity of beings, their infinite selves. Trained in photography and video at l’École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, as well as the School of Visual Arts in New York, he directed his first movie « Life damages the living » in 2021 during his residency at Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains.
