Welcome to POING FORT, the podcast that will give you the weapons of self-confidence. In this first season, 10 guests take off their masks to talk to us frankly about the failures and doubts they had to overcome to achieve their ambitions.
I discovered her in the brilliant series "Les Gouttes de Dieux" - which has just started airing on France 2 - and she will very soon be one of the main roles in the series "Rivages" which she has just finished filming.
Fleur Geffrier is an actress and she had to fight to get there. When she was younger, she suffered from bullying at school and found refuge in the theater which allowed her to feel free.
After a few setbacks along the way, she finally managed to get into the school of her dreams, Cours Florent, like her role model, Audrey Tautou.
After many failures, the well-deserved success is just around the corner. A cover of Madame Figaro later, here she is invited to the microphone of Poing Fort where she does us the honor of sharing her life lessons with us.
How do you deal with pressure or the fear of failure in a world as competitive as cinema?
How to take care of your mental health?
What is his creative process for getting out of his comfort zone?
Discover the journey of Fleur, a talented actress and a fighter, impressive in her strength and courage!

MARGAUX: What kind of little girl were you?
FLEUR: I had two faces when I was little. At home, I was very bossy. I knew what I wanted. At school, it was very different, I had more trouble finding my place and it was difficult because there was something that didn't fit in with the others and that put me out of step. Children are quite cruel to each other as soon as we are a little different, whether it's physically, or through our choices, our tastes, our lives, our families, our parents, our clothes. I really liked taking refuge in reading, in films, in art, but especially in cinema. I watched a lot of films with my parents.

MARGAUX: Was there a figure you wanted to look like when you were little?
FLEUR: When I was little, it's true that my mother fascinated me a lot. Then, there was the actress Audrey Tautou in "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain", a film that delves into a somewhat romanticized, fantasized universe of a postcard Paris. Shortly after, I saw an interview with her when I was 12. She talked about the Cours Florent, her career, how she got there.
I said to myself... "I would love to do that but it's impossible, Paris is so far away but my god I'll never get there but I would love to". When I returned to the Cours Florent I remembered that moment, even though I had completely forgotten that moment of doubt.

MARGAUX: How did this role (Les Gouttes de Dieux) come to you?
FLOWER: T hanks to Agathe Hassenforder who was the casting director. I was filming at the time. I read the script, I visualized myself in the role, it was pretty crazy. What did I like? The fact that it was adapted from a manga and that it takes place a bit in Japan, the fact that it talks about wine. I also found the character to be like me. There were some rather disturbing sides to her: the strong woman side, the spontaneous side, her determination, the fact that she was also a bit lost. That wasn't really my case but I was at one time in my life. I found her very touching, funny and sunny and I liked her. To pass the castings, I had 3 days to learn 15 pages of casting text in French and English.
