Exploring characters at challenging intersections of the human experience, her films probe the vast, mystical range of emotions that characters feel.

Sylvie holds a Philosophy Master’s degree from the University of Vienna and studied audio-visual production at SIMC in Pune, India. Her films have screened at festivals and institutions worldwide, including Black Star Film Festival, BAM, LA Film Forum, Seoul International Film Festival, Pacific Film Archive and Museo Italiano Audiovisivo e Cinema. As a commercial director with over a decade of experience, Sylvie has worked with some of the world’s leading brands like Nike, Lufthansa, DAZN, OnePlus, Bose, My/Mochi, Ayede, Dr.Hauschka. In 2023, Sylvie participated in Playlab Films Creator's Lab with Apichatpong Weerasethakul in Mexico.
