Line Pillet is a Belgian filmmaker. In January 2020, she was selected by Cité des arts Internationale Paris for a writing residency where she wrote the script of the short film Window that she finished in February 2023. Currently she is working on a new fiction film to evoke a dialogue with politicians and policymakers following the 2024 elections. The film advocates employment opportunities for sans-papiers in bottleneck occupations. Her films are marked by their intuitive character and strong images. Her work explores space and people in relation to each other and nature. The particular characters create their own universe. The central theme of her films is oppression in all its forms and the impossibility of going against our nature.

Alfa
At Hektor, I would like to write the first episode of my miniseries Alfa. The drama series is about a villa neighborhood on the edge of a nature reserve. When a wolf pack shows up, conflict arises among the neighborhood residents. The focus of the series is on atypical family structures. Both families are single-parent families relying on a single mother figure. A few years ago, I got the idea to create a story about wolves in Belgium. It provides an interesting vehicle to talk about relevant themes such as nature policy, migration and social exclusion.
