“This is a great honor and I am lucky enough to live in this adventure”: Virginia Grimald plays her role in festival President de la Fantasy de la Rochelle

This Tuesday, September 16, La Rochelle 2025 Fiction Festival opened! An event that combines every professional on a small screen and French fantastic fantasy every year. For this new publication, dedicated to Stephen Strano very late, it is Virginia’s Grimald, which provides the role of the jury president for this new publication.

The opportunity to write the separation will meet a successful novelist. So we talked about this opportunity, which is particularly close to his heart and how he was going to judge fifty works, which is still presented this year.

But this is not all because his work is a fragrance of happiness in the rain, the recently adapted to the screen and will be presented by the fiction filter de la fiction de la rochelle for 2025. Mini series in four episodes that were especially distracted by the author. Self -confident!

Separation: What should be the President of the Jury Jury in La Rochelle Fiction?

Virgin Grimald: First of all, I knew they were thinking about me. It is a great honor and I feel lucky that I will be able to live this adventure. I have a scene and pressure because it is a big responsibility to judge other people’s affairs. But I met other members of the jury and I think we would be able to agree to distinguish the works we like the most.

Is this a sentence that we can’t refuse?

I admit that without hesitation. But because exactly, I didn’t know I would be in my place, and if I were to do the task. I like doing things. I take my responsibilities very sincerely. So, at first, I said no.

But it didn’t last long. After the clock reflection, I told myself that it could be an unusual experience, especially at the human level. And then, I want to get out of my comfort zone a little.

How are you going to judge competition work?

Since I know I will be La Rochelle Fiction Festival’s jury president, I look at all the works differently. I think that’s why they thought about me because I have a little different eye, a little new compared to the middle.

The composer may be more attentive to music, image director, actors actors in the actors. I think this will be a set of all this, and at the same time, I will stay with what I am looking for in the first place: the emotion that it will give me if it is fixed, which is also left. Sometimes we look at something and forget so quickly. I come down with this slightly new appearance.

What place does television in your life take as a spectator?

It is often not involved. It was more at a certain period. Now that we have children, turn off a little bit. But I am a great user of series and fantasy and some shows. We look at the replica in general.

Which TV series or television movies have recently mentioned?

Lately, I have loved the cult and Miss Kina! This is a very different genre, but I liked it very much. I also loved therapy. Otherwise, I look at many foreign inventions. I loved the white lotus. I liked the thrones of Game. I love breaking bad.

Do you have favorite genres?

No, exactly, really everything. Everything that makes me, or when I hear someone who tells me: “You absolutely have to look at it.” Lately, I have watched a historic series, it was at the dawn of American dawn. I liked it when I didn’t go spontaneously. It is quite eclectic.

We see French fantasy in recent years, they have a particular importance to talk about quite powerful things. Is it important for you?

Yes, exactly, I carefully treat the things that are treated. And indeed, I see that in recent years we have been talking about everything that is violence against women, feminine, racism, homosexuality.

Through fiction, in books or on screen, you can get messages more easily, nothing. It allows you to open souls only by talking or even talking about it, but simply showing some situations. I think about homosexuality!

The fact is that we see more and more homosexual couples in the artwork, without it, even if it is not enough. I think it is developing very well.
