Laurent Micheli is a dynamic filmmaker whose works resonate deeply with collectors of international cinema. Graduating from INSAS in 2007, he began his artistic journey in theatre, transitioning to film with his debut feature, *Even Lovers Get the Blues* (2016). This self-produced film captured attention for its bold exploration of sexuality, earning Micheli a nomination for Best First Film at the Magritte Awards, making it a sought-after title for collectors interested in innovative storytelling and LGBTQ+ representation. Following this success, Micheli directed *Lola vers la mer* (2019), which not only showcased the talents of Mya Bollaers, an emerging star in the transgender narrative, but also garnered critical acclaim and won numerous awards, including two Magritte Awards. With releases in around fifteen countries, the film has become a staple in global cinema collections. As collectors seek authentic voices in contemporary film, Micheli’s work, including his latest project *Nino dans la nuit*, continues to find its place on shelves, marking him as a significant figure in modern filmmaking.
