Frédéric Fougea is a French author, director and cinema and television producer, born on 4 March 1961 in Paris. He heads the production company Boréales, which he founded in 1987. His films are recognisable for their particular style, mixing documentary and fiction: constructed more like "narratives", than classic documentaries, they are often described as "tales". Their focus tends to be the relationship between humans and animals; exploring the animalistic qualities of man and the human traits of animals.
