Maïram Guissé

Maïram Guissé grew up in Canteleu, a working-class town in Normandy. After completing her university studies, she became a journalist at Paris-Normandie, where she received on-the-job training. In 2008, she finished her studies on Réunion Island and, following an internship at Le Parisien, joined one of its regional offices, becoming a permanent staff member in 2012.

In 2014, Guissé co-directed the documentary L’Amour en cité, produced by Upian and aired on France 4. This experience was a turning point, as she discovered a medium where she could tell stories in a new way. In 2019, she participated in the documentary filmmaking workshop at Ateliers Varan, where she created Quartiers d’été, later adapting it into a podcast series for Binge Audio. Her latest film, Vie de ma mère, received the SCAM's "Brouillon d'un rêve" grant.
