After graduating from INRACI in 1999, Sébastien Petit held all types of functions on film sets, from electrician to cameraman, from editor to assistant director. In 2004, he set up the “Atelier Pelloche”, a studio dedicated to producing short films with mentally handicapped grown-ups, while founding, together with 7 friends, “Boîte Noire” a production company that allowed him to direct a few shorts. In 2007, while working back on film sets (mainly in advertising), he directed « Chaos » (2010) and « Bowling Killers » (2013) which was nominated for best short film at the Belgian Magritte Awards in 2014.

« Eliot » is his first feature film.
