Bruno Ulmer

Overview

Born in Fez, Morocco in 1959. A graduate in medicine and a postgraduate degree in management from HEC, he was project manager in a communications consultancy agency in Paris and head of cultural and humanitarian sponsorship for the Danone group. He has made several films or documentary series since 1998, including "Life in 8", in 2000 "Books of life, memoirs of the humble", "Travels in the Mediterranean", "Fils de son père", in 2001 "French from here , peoples from elsewhere", in 2002 "Casa Marseille, inch'Allah" and "Little maids" in 2003.

His documentary "Welcome Europa" in 2008, which won awards at numerous festivals, tackles the issue of young illegal immigrants (Romanians, Kurds or Moroccans) who seek refuge and work in Europe and are accused of wandering, theft and prostitution. In Berlin, Marseille, Paris, Amsterdam, Turin and Calais, Bruno Ulmer accompanied some of these men in their drift. A raw portrait of men in loss of bearings and identity.
