PARACHUTE - Anthony Relisa Explores Inner Struggle
With "Parachute", his second short film, Malagasy filmmaker Anthony Relisa presents a poetic work that delves into an inner battle that anyone may experience. An invisible struggle, a fight against oneself, emotions difficult to put into words. This is the core of "Parachute", the second short film by Malagasy director and producer Anthony Relisa. Running approximately forty minutes, the film presents itself as a poetic work, full of meaning and deliberately enigmatic, in which the character and personality of its creator shine through. A private screening took place this Thursday at the Cité des Cultures, with an invited audience, to officially present the film. The session continued with a moment of sharing around viewers' feelings and their perception of this work that invites personal reflection. Following "Dear Lia", Anthony Relisa thus signs a new production born from nearly a year of preparation. From writing to costumes, through to directing the shots, each step was meticulously crafted to bring this project to life. Lôfo.madagasikara will also accompany the film's journey by retracing the different stages of its adventure. Based in Antananarivo, Anthony Relisa has been building his audiovisual career since 2021 with an emotional and intuitive approach. Director and producer, he has worked in documentary, event coverage and institutional content. In 2025, he founded Prelud Studio and collaborates with several Malagasy artists, including Bolo, Raboussa and Poety Rebely, as well as with companies and institutions such as Société Générale, the Korean embassy, Jovena, Becom and Feedback Madagascar.
