drawings and animated drawings

Myleine Guiard-Schmid creates drawings and animated drawings for the cinema and also practices the visual arts. Cinema, sculpture, painting… the arts are her passion, her profession. Art has an undeniable power to reveal, to tell stories or denounce with beauty and style. myleineguiardschmid.wordpress.com / myleine.animation@gmail.com

The film producers

Longo maï was founded in 1973. It is made up of nine self-managed cooperative farms in Europe. They produce and process a wide variety of local cereal and vegetable crops. All of the cooperatives produce part of their own seeds and organise regular seed swaps, thereby helping to increase interest for such varieties and encouraging more people to produce their own seeds.

The European Civic Forum is an international solidarity network active, among others, in the defense of open-pollinated seeds and small-scale farming that respects social rights.
