Biografia

Soon after arriving in Canada in 1996, he settled in Toronto and became involved in its French-speaking artistic community for which he founded the Laboratoire d'art. After directing a short film and two documentaries, he moved to Montreal to make his first feature film, Halal Butcher Shop (2012).
