Après <strong>de</strong>s étu<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong>langue et civilisation chinoises, elle intègre l’École Louis Lumière en formationprofessionnelle. Passionnée par la recherche <strong>du</strong> rythme, elle est guidée par laconviction que le temps est, comme l’image et le son, une matière <strong>du</strong> cinéma, unélément <strong>de</strong> récit. Selon elle, le montage façonne le film, lui donne corps, le rendvisible, au fil d’un processus <strong>de</strong> recherche commun, mêlant intuition et réflexion. C’estdans cette dynamique particulière, créée avec les cinéastes, qu’elle trouve sonénergie <strong>de</strong> travail. Certaines rencontres ont été fondatrices, et tout particulièrementcelle <strong>de</strong> Chantal Akerman. En 1986, elle monte Letters Home, film peu connu avecDelphine et Coralie Seyrig. Ce travail a révélé une gran<strong>de</strong> connivence et unesensibilité commune, qui se sont accrues au fil <strong>du</strong> temps. Il se poursuit <strong>de</strong>puis dansles <strong>documentaire</strong>s, fictions et installations <strong>de</strong> la réalisatrice.D’autres rencontres lui ont permis <strong>de</strong> s’ouvrir à <strong>de</strong>s horizons toujours plus vastes.Parmi elles, Luc Decaster, Emilio Pacull, Anne Faisandier, Séverine Mathieu, et plusrécemment Noëlle Pujol, Andreas Bolm, Ludovic Burel, Emmanuelle Demoris, AnneBarbé, Florent Tillon…Born in 1963 in San Francisco ; Claire Atherton is a film editor.
