LA HUIT PRODUCTION is an independent company established in 1992 and based in Paris, driven by three producers Stéphane Jourdain, Laurence Milon and Guillaume Dero. Our activity includes production and post-production for cinema and television, as well as a DVD edition pole. Our catalogue counts more than 300 films and is broadened every year with new documentary films, feature films, live recordings of music, dance and theatre. The films have in common their desire to reflect upon our contemporary world through music, creation and culture, history, ethnology, social and geopolitical issues. Collaborating with young filmmakers, as well as renowned filmmakers over the years (Jean Breschand, Viviane Perelmuter, Tamara Stepanyan, Vincent Dieutre, Jacqueline Caux, Fanny Spindler, Sandrine Veysset, , …), exploring the cinema direct technique as well as searching for new formal approaches, all remain La Huit's priority focal points.
La Huit is also a film distributor and is currently releasing in France (and selling worldwide) “La supplication” by Pol Cruchten, based on Nobel Prize Svetlana Alexievitch’s book “Voices from Chernobyl” (Produced by Red Lion Luxemburg, the film will be representing Luxemburg at the Academy Awards in 2017).
