- History

Created in 1989, the company Entre Chien et Loup has succeeded in imposing itself on the European audio-visual market with a production policy of film making with high quality content. Our production philosophy, both in feature and documentary films, is committed to the same idea: continuing access to distribution in the audio-visual sector involves a permanent and formidable challenge. In a society where predigested image consumption has become standard, Entre Chien et Loup remains faithful to its basic intention: to make films combining committed narration (by their authors and their subjects), a strong sense of cinematography and the appropriate production back up to fulfil this ambition.
And over the course of time, this obstinacy has paid off.
