ABOUT

Our Story

Following the urban riots in 2005, on the right bank of Bordeaux, Zangro set up the « En attendant demain » (waiting for tomorrow) collective. Their aim was to tell the stories of the realities of life in the neighbourhood through comedy. An adventure that resulted in 18 short films and a TV drama for Canal +. In 2008, he set up « À part ça tout va bien » (otherwise, all good), a comedy web series that explored the schizophrenic relationship between Islam and France. A project that attained 35 million views and international acclaim.

In 2011, Zangro, director and producer, set up « Bien ou Bien Productions » who produce drama for cinema and television. In 2020, Bien ou Bien Productions produce features, short films and TV series and have been awarded more than 150 international awards including a Cesar, several prestigous awards at Sundance, Toronto… Supported by numerous private and public bodies, our films stand out in international festivals and reflect our production goals : to promote, in our own way, directors who have a distinctive view of the world we live in.
