An interview with Julien Gaspar-Oliveri, co-creator of ‘Those Who Blush’ (‘Ceux qui rougissent’), the fresh new series that bagged the Best Series Award in Short Forms Competition at Series Mania! 🌟
A dozen high school students in a theatre elective find themselves stuck with a substitute teacher for a month. As they recite Shakespeare from a safe distance, the teacher abruptly interrupts their rehearsal. In an age where young people hide their emotions behind a mask, their heads either too high or too low, the question of intimacy becomes increasingly inescapable.
📖 From Shakespearean recitals to unscripted moments that blur the lines between fiction and reality, ‘Those Who Blush’ is a masterful blend of comedy and drama that perfectly encapsulates the dizzying highs and lows of teenage life.
🌟 Julien Gaspar-Oliveri, alongside co-creators Maud Konan & Johan Rouveyre, has crafted a innovative approach, mixing documentary-style storytelling with the spontaneity of improvisation.
