Christian Carion is attracted by cinema since he is 13 years old. After scientific studies, he enters an agriculture school to please his family. Determined to devote himself to cinema, he rents a video camera, starts to direct short films and then meets Christophe Rossignon who was starting his producer career at that time.
At the same time he is working for the Ministry of agriculture, Christian Carion direct three short films among which Le Château d’eau in 1998 and Monsieur le député the next year in which Christophe Rossignon played the main character.
In 2001, he directs his first feature film The Girl from Paris, starring Michel Serrault and Mathilde Seigner, homage to his origins that seduced 2.4 millions French spectators.
Supported by this success, he then starts on a more ambitious project initiated in 1993: Merry Christmas.
