_Synopsis
Ceci est mon coeur is the contemporary tale of an extraordinary love story, the love story of the magical reconciliation of a child with his body. This child is us. This story is ours. The story of the reconciliation of the child we were and the adult we are now, with our wounded and broken bodies, but which we love, despite everything, with all our heart.

BLIES Brothers
Nicolas Blies and Stéphane Hueber-Blies (Blies brothers) are two French filmmakers and digital artists who create their works together. They also co-founded the award-winning cinema production company a_BAHN and the immersive art studio VELVET FLARE.
In 2015, they conceptualized the documentary music transmedia Soundhunters in co-production with ARTE. Soundhunters was imagined to transform the world into an infinite musical instrument. The transmedia is released in 2015 in collaboration with many international artists including Jean Michel Jarre, Simonne Jones or Blixa Bargeld. In 2016, the Blies brothers are invited to present their work at Lincoln Center during the New York Film Festival. The project is placed in 2016 under the high patronage of UNESCO.
In 2019, they wrote and directed their first feature film Zero Impunity ( Thessaloniki IFF, Annecy IFF, Moscow IFF, Mostra de Sao Paulo, Guadalajara IFF, Palm Springs IFF...). The film was nominated for the Trophées Francophones du Cinéma in the category “Best documentary”. The film is the centerpiece of an international transmedia project of social impact denouncing the impunity of sexual violence in wartime. The filmmakers have been invited to participate in numerous conferences, notably in the presence of Doctor Denis Mukwege (Nobel Peace Prize 2018).
In 2021, they decided to devote themselves exclusively to more intimate and personal work. They are developing several immersive art projects, including Ceci est mon coeur in co-production with CENTRE PHI in Montreal, Lucid Realities in Paris, Eclats de voix and Le Goût du déséquilibre, which they are developing in collaboration with the CINEDANS Dance Festival in Amsterdam. They are also working on two feature film projects. A feature-length fiction film Caravanes and an animation film Les deux frères.
Jury
In 2020, the Blies brothers are members of the feature film jury section “Contrechamp” of the 44th International Animation Film Festival of Annecy. In 2018, Nicolas Blies is a member of the jury section “National Documentary” and Stéphane Hueber-Blies member and president of the section “Innovation Award” at the 31st International Festival of Audiovisual Production of Biarritz (FIPA).
