Antoine Flandre

Antoine Flandre is a Paris-based film editor and lifelong cinephile whose passion for cinema, spanning every genre and era, has shaped a dynamic career in both short and feature films. After earning a reputation as a devoted (if occasionally “nauseating,” per one university professor) film enthusiast, he began his professional journey in Paris, working on trailers, video games (Ubisoft), and television (MTV, Game One, TF1, M6, Canal+). However, his true calling emerged when two directors from his TV days entrusted him with editing their debut shorts, igniting a prolific career in independent filmmaking.

Flandre’s work on acclaimed shorts—including Homesick (2018, dir. Koya Kamura), Cut Me If You Can (2023, dir. Nicolas Polixene & Sylvain Loubet), and the award-winning Alarms (2023, dir. Nicolas Panay), culminated in his first Best Editor win at the 2025 Short Encounters International Film Festival. His transition to features came with Winter in Sokcho (2025, dir. Koya Kamura), a critically praised debut that earned strong box-office success and multiple awards, including César 2025 eligibility. A collaborator equally at home with emerging and established directors, Flandre thrives on the creative exchange of editing, embracing every genre as both a craftsman and a devoted cinephile. Honored to serve on the 2025 Short Encounters jury, he continues to seek bold new projects, whether shorts or features, with partners old and new.
