Background


Hadžihalilović was born in Lyon in 1961 to Bosnian Yugoslav parents and grew up in Morocco until she was 17.[2] She studied art history[2] and graduated from the prestigious French film school La Femis (previously Institut des hautes études cinématographiques) in 1987 with the short film La Premiere Mort de Nono.[3]

In the early 1990s, she began to collaborate with the notable French filmmaker Gaspar Noé. She produced and edited his short film Carne (1991) and its sequel, the feature-length I Stand Alone (1998), and together they formed the production company Les Cinémas de la Zone[4] in 1991.[3] Noe explained their coming together as business partners: "we discovered that we shared a desire to make films atypical and we decided together to create our own society, Les Cinémas de la Zone, in order to finance our projects."[5] Hadžihalilović's first film after her graduation, La Bouche de Jean-Pierre (1996), was a result of this collaborative effort. Hadžihalilović wrote, edited, produced, and directed the film while Noé worked as the cinematographer. La Bouche de Jean-Pierre was shown during the Un Certain Regard panel at the Cannes Film Festival as well as being selected for various other notable festivals throughout the world.[3] Hadžihalilović also contributed to the screenplay of Noe's critically divisive Enter the Void (2009), and continued as a producer of Lux Æterna (2019) and Vortex (2021).


Career



Editor


Hadžihalilović worked as an editor for a number of films before beginning her own projects. The first film she worked on was Sylvain Ledey's short Festin (1986),[2][6] after which she edited Alain Bourges' 1991 documentary Horizons artificiels (Trois rêves d'architecture),[2] which has been described as "three confrontations between the discourse on architecture and the architecture of speech."[7] Soon after, she had begun her collaboration with Gaspar Noé and worked on his 1991 short Carne.[8] In 1994, she worked on the short La Baigneuse by Joel Leberre.[2] Hadžihalilović then both produced and edited Noe's feature-length sequel to Carne, 1998's I Stand Alone.[2]


Director


Hadžihalilović's first short feature after her graduating film was La Bouche de Jean-Pierre (1996). It is told through the eyes of a young girl, Mimi (Sandra Sammartino), whose mother had attempted suicide. Mimi is then relocated to live with her aunt (Denise Aron-Schropfer) and a man named Jean-Pierre (Michel Trillot). The film features child abuse, and ends with Mimi taking sleeping pills in an effort to copy her mother.[3]

In 1998, Hadžihalilović made Good Boys Use Condoms, one of a series of erotic short films promoting condom use.[9] Another in the series, Sodomites, was made by Noé.[10] In 2004, she released the critically acclaimed film Innocence, starring Marion Cotillard and Hélène de Fougerolles. The film was inspired by the 1903 novella Mine-Haha, or On the Bodily Education of Young Girls by German playwright Frank Wedekind.[3] The film follows three young girls who attend a secluded mysterious boarding school and their interactions with their teachers (Cotillard and Fougerolles).[3] She has commented on the film's similarity or references to Peter Weir's Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), Dario Argento's Suspiria (1977), and Victor Erice's The Spirit of the Beehive (1973).[11]

Hadžihalilović released a short entitled Nectar in 2014[12] and the feature film Evolution in 2015.[13] Evolution revolves around young boys who are subjected to mysterious treatments and live on an island inhabited solely by women and themselves.[14]

Hadžihalilović released her first English-language feature in 2021 called Earwig, about a girl whose teeth are made of ice.[15]
