Director Biography:
From her art house origins acting in films by Jean-Luc Godard and Krzysztof Kieślowski to Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy to her own films as a director, one quality defines the work of Julie Delpy: truth. Whether delivered in light comedy or devastating drama, Delpy’s work serves up the uncomfortable and the undeniable in a single coup de grâce. In Meet the Barbarians, it’s a frequently hilarious pleasure to watch her cast that truthful gaze on small town France.
