Biography

Zoée Bijotat

I’m a French-Swiss cinematographer, with directing as part of my personal work. I studied film in Switzerland at ECAL and later at ZHDK, where I expanded my knowledge in cinematography.

For me, if the sole purpose is to create an aesthetic image, then that image will not leave a lasting impression on us or stand the test of time. Storytelling is therefore where I find the most meaning and passion. I’m drawn to simplicity and to what happens when it’s given the right time and light.
