In Thokoza

Cyprien Clément-Delmas (b. 1986) is a French photographer and film-maker who lives and works in Barcelona.

Adopting a documentary approach, he embeds himself in communities and creates intimate and realistic portraits over several years. His first full-length documentary film, Boy of War, follows a young Ukrainian soldier going to the front. Several of his short films have won awards at festivals (Intrusion, Day One, The Last Tape). He combines this with his work for Rubis Mécénat, running photography workshops with young people in the townships of Johannesburg (South Africa) with Of Soul and Joy, and in Kingston (Jamaica) with InPulse. He also leads workshops in prisons.
