Get to know the filmmaker:

1. What motivated you to make this film?

Heal avec Delphine was born from my daily journey with my clients who suffering from missing self confidence and hair loss.

A deep desire to show that beauty is more than appearance — it's emotional restoration. As a beauty expert, I can tell you each scar, each loss, each mark are telling you a story .

The healing starts when they are seen, listen and restored.

I wanted to give them — and all of us — a voice, a space to heal, and to remind the world that transformation begins within.

2. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film?

It took about two years from the first idea to the final cut. I receive thousands people from all over the world. I was the only witness of these amazing story. This project brings untold story to the light. I did the casting, auto finance and produce this docuseries.

3. How would you describe your film in two words!?

Emotional Restoration.

4. What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film?

Finding balance — emotionally and logistically. Because the stories are real and deeply personal, I often carried the emotions home. At the same time, producing, directing, and running my beauty business required immense discipline and heart. But I learned that healing others heals you too.

5. What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video?

It moved me to tears. Hearing people describe how Heal avec Delphine touched their hearts validated every sleepless night. When strangers feel seen, it means the mission worked — that connection through honesty is universal.

6. When did you realize that you wanted to make films?

When I realized beauty and storytelling could merge. I've always seen faces as canvases, but film allowed me to capture the emotion behind them — the silent stories behind each pair of eyes. That realization changed everything.

7. What film have you seen the most in your life?

Probably Eat Pray Love — it mirrors the journey of rediscovery, resilience, and the courage to follow intuition. It reminds me that self-love is the starting point of all transformation.

8. What other elements of the festival experience can we and other festivals implement to satisfy you and help you further your filmmaking career?

Creating more mentorship and distribution connections for independent creators would be invaluable — especially spaces where filmmakers can meet producers, streamers, or impact-driven brands that align with their message. That bridge between art and opportunity makes all the difference.

9. You submitted to the festival via FilmFreeway. How has your experience been working on the festival platform site?

FilmFreeway has been smooth and accessible. It's an amazing platform for independent filmmakers to reach audiences and festivals worldwide. I love how transparent it is and how easy it is to track submissions.

10. What is your favorite meal?

Pasta bolognese

11. What is next for you? A new film?

Yes — Heal avec Delphine is only the beginning. I'm currently developing the next episode and expanding the conversation around emotional healing and beauty worldwide. I'm also looking for a producer and distribution.
