The epic life story of Alice Guy-Blaché (1873–1968), a French screenwriter, director and producer, true pioneer of cinema, the first person who made a narrative fiction film; author of hundreds of movies, but banished from history books. Ignored and forgotten. At last remembered.

Be Natural: The Untold Story of Alice Guy-Blaché
“I was sent to madame Blanché Solax studios.High on one wall and letters two feet tall was her mandate “Be natural”.Her sign was amazing for those times when the common phrase for acting was posing for pictures.Her sign made me realice movies didn’t have to be phony and neither did I”

Muchas gracias, Alice.
