Career

[edit]

Liliane de Kermadec began as a set photographer, working with Agnes Varda on Cléo from 5 to 7, Alain Resnais on Muriel, and Yves Robert on Berbert and the Train.[1]

Liliane de Kermadec's first two feature films, Home Sweet Home (1972) and Aloïse (1975), were both screened at Cannes Film Festival.[1][3]

Tim Palmer published an article, "Enraged to Live: Reviving Liliane de Kermadec’s Aloïse," on de Kermadec's often obscured legacy, in the context of women's authorship and interventionist subtitling, in French Screen Studies.[4]
