Frédéric Fougea is a French author, director and cinema and television producer, born March 4, 1961, in Paris.
He heads the production company Boréales, which he founded in 1987.
His films are recognisable for their particular style, mixing documentary and fiction: constructed more like "narratives", than classic documentaries, they are often described as "tales".
Their focus tends to be the relationship between humans and animals; exploring the animalistic qualities of man and the human traits of animals.
