New York’s Tribeca Film Festival will include the short film Sirènes (Mermaids) in its Shorts: Course Correction section, from June 6 through 10, at AMC 19th St. East 6 and Village East by Angelika. The 16-minute film (lecxfilms) was directed by Martinican director Sarah Malléon.
Description: Daniel, a widowed father in northern Martinique, lives with his 8-year-old daughter, Soraya. A fisherman and restaurateur, he struggles to survive in a town plagued by economic and social crises.
Sarah Malléon graduated in 2015 from CEEA, one of the best scriptwriting schools in France. Since 2015, she has been moving between television and cinema, between commissions and creations. She wrote an episode of Sam’s season II and a new series at Quad for France 3. Doubout, her short film written and directed with Pierre Le Gall, received an award at the Prix de Court Festival in 2019. Malléon’s “talented and sharp pen” is behind several episodes of famous French series such as Mongeville, Sam, or Tropiques Criminelles.
