Playtime Films was founded in 2007 by Julien Bechara, Matthieu Frances and Gilles-Ivan Frankignoul
The three of us graduated from belgian film schools.
Playtime is born from a common interest for independent films crafting.
Our main objective has always been to create a production and post-production hub where directors of our generation can find support for their projects. For more than three years now we've produced a number of young talented directors.
