DIRECTOR - BIO

Originally from Montreal, Rachel has always had a passion for photography and culture. In 2020, she graduated from the cinema program at UQAM in the DoP profile. She has since worked on film sets, notably as a camera operator/steadicam operator.

DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT

After being overwhelmed by the world of car racing, I felt an immense need to share this experience I had had with the public. The objective was to have the impression, thanks to a camera inspired by the “direct cinema” style, of being part of the Prolon team and of having this proximity with the characters as if “we” were all  part of this team in its victories as well as its defeats. It was also a way for me to fall back in love with filmmaking and I strongly believe you can feel this joy through the screen.
