The César for best short fiction film goes to The Waitdirected by Alice Douard.
” Thank you so much. It’s a reward for the whole team and then for me, a real encouragement for the future. This short film, The wait, it’s a story of women in a relationship who are expecting a child. I wanted to create a representation that seemed lacking to me, to offer an image far from fantasies, a simple, happy, and above all universal image of what it is to be a parent for the first time. I thank Clotilde Hesme, Laetitia Dosch, for playing this couple (…) I thank all the actors and actresses in the film, the entire team, the partners and the festivals who made the film possible. »
