Franie-Éléonore Bernier is a Québec director known for her work in comedy. Drawn to both actor direction and visual storytelling, she is particularly interested in the art of timing, whether it's capturing a perfectly placed silence or a subtle expression on screen.

Her ability to find the detail, gesture, or reaction that makes a scene memorable, combined with her talent for bold visual storytelling and art direction, has become a hallmark of her work. This approach is shaped by both her background in fiction and her experience directing award-winning advertising campaigns for brands such as Volkswagen and Canac.

Franie has directed several short films showcased at festivals including Palm Springs ShortFest, Clermont-Ferrand ISFF, and Encounters. Her films blend humor and sincerity to create stories that are funny, moving, and delightfully offbeat.
