An unscripted conversation

When the film industry meets the video game industry, countless references to literature and internet culture start piling up. This new conversation highlights two almost opposite approaches to storytelling: for François, the structure of a film or series relies on a precise intention, a carefully crafted rhythm, and editing that locks in the meaning of the story being told. For Inès, the story must be able to open up, bend to the game’s mechanics, be rewritten with every iteration, and adapt to what the player decides… or ignores.

Meet these two enthusiasts of video games, cinema, and literature, dive with them into the inner workings of writing, and let yourself be inspired!

From Zelda to Stephen King, from Silent Hill to web series, the episode explores their influences and reveals a shared truth: storytelling is never just a backdrop. It’s a movement, an experience, a way of inhabiting a world.
