THE DOOMIES

Synopsis: When best friends Bobby and Romy mistakenly open up a gateway to another world, they turn their sleepy coastal town into a hotspot for terrifying creatures of doom. Roped into an epic supernatural mystery, they will cross paths with the so-called “Chosen One” and do battle with both literal and inner monsters. “The Doomies” is a spooky comedy that combines thrills, chills and surprises with character-driven comedy from an odd couple of ordinary teens engulfed by extraordinary circumstances. Its fast-paced humor and high-stakes action take place in a quirky French town in the heart of Brittany, imagined with moody flair and graphic style.

Director & Co-Creator: Andrès Fernandez

Incredible week for « My life in Versailles » in Annecy!

The first episode “The Royal Ghost” premiered during the festival where Clémence Madeleine-Perdrillat and Nathaniel H’Limi, creators of the series, welcomed school classes for a special session! They also attended a book signing event at the Annecy Library for the release of the new book of the series.

This exceptional achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and talent of the teams at Films Grand Huit, Melusine and Xilam. Many thanks to all our partners for their trust and support, including our broadcasting partners France TV, TV5 Monde and RTS.

Stay tuned for the next adventures of Violette & Regis!
