A photographer and, hopefully, an emerging director who's scenarios will be enriched by meeting you :)

I was born and raised in Algiers then moved to study Physics in Paris and Management in Toulouse. Growing up on two different continents allowed me to experience very different social environments and this provides me with an ability to understand and accept different point of views wether it's about religion (I am an agnostic), politics or culture as long as they are tolerant ✨

My passion for cinema started during the pandemic when I got locked up in a tiny student appartment with 0 social life. It led me to create a mini comic show shared on my Instagram (it's a public account you can go check it out !). Since then I worked in a production company and studied cinema in a Parisian school.

I currently work as a photographer, and spend most of my time working on my cinema projects, watching movies at the film library of Paris, aka la "cinémathèque française".

I also play the saxophone at an amateur level. I am mainly into Jazz, Fusion Rock and Pop. An Ibrahim Maalouf lover, a Snarky Puppy admirer and a Pink Floyd lover 🧬

You can find me on Instagram where I share both my work and some of my private life 🥸: zaki_kessai

I will gladly talk with you on the phone using WhatsApp to have a more vivid idea of who you are :)
