Julia Ducournau: ENTJ

“Julia Ducournau (born 18 November 1983) is a French film director and screenwriter. She made her feature film debut in 2016 with Raw.

At the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, she won the Palme d'Or for her film Titane. (…)

Xavier Aldana Reyes categorizes Ducournau's films as "Gothic Horror Heroinism." This is illustrated by "graphic body horror" shown in all of her films.

According to Ducournau, her "flesh fascination stems from her childhood" since both her parents are doctors.

Per Ducournau, the way in which her parents spoke about the human body growing up informed her artistic expression within her films.

For instance, she outlines in an interview with The Guardian that "doctors have this very upfront yet distant way of talking about bodies and death."

Alex Godfrey, Guardian journalist, illustrates this "flesh fascination" can be seen through her "unflinching" use of the camera in Raw, with "unforgiving" closeups and "atrocities un-glorified."

Ducournau's work has become known for being brutal and disturbing.”
