Loïc Corbery

Born: June 9, 1976
in Avignon, France
Originally from Avignon, he quickly discovered the theater thanks to his parents (his father was an engineer and his mother a professor of literature). At the age of six, he accidentally met Agnès Varda, who cast him in the short film she was shooting in Avignon at the time. The short film is called 7 rooms kitchen and bathroom.

After his baccalaureate, he left for Paris to follow theatrical studies at the Périmony course. He then joined the National Conservatory of Dramatic Art, where he studied from 1997 to 2000, in the classes of Stuart Seide and Jacques Lassalle.

In 2003, he played in Le jour du destin and won a nomination for the Molières 2004 for male theatrical revelation. In addition to the theatre, he can be seen in several French television series, most often for an episode, but he also held recurring roles, such as in the series Commissaire Valence, broadcast on TF1, with Bernard Tapie in the title role.

Accompanied by a child, the mathematician Galileo observes the firmament with a telescope.

By dint of observations and calculations, Galileo seeks proofs for his hypothesis of a cosmic system where the Earth is "an ordinary celestial body, one among thousands". From Padua to Venice, the mathematician shakes certainties by confronting the power of a Church which wishes to maintain its absolute power in the "crystal spheres" where Ptolemy has hitherto locked up the world.

Le Petit-Maître Corrigé
Title: Le Petit-Maître Corrigé
Character: Rosimond, fils de la Marquise
Released: March 8, 2018
Type: Movie
Le Petit-Maître corrigé is a three-act romantic comedy by French playwright Marivaux. It was first performed on November 6, 1734, by the Comédie-Française in Paris. In this production Clément Hervieu-Léger makes the eighteenth century resonate with our era, all the more so given that the language is “simpler than in other Marivaux plays, while still as refined, precise and full of humour”. The story is that of a young Parisian whose parents have found a good match for him, a count’s daughter. But when he goes to visit her in her country home, the handsome boy – whose Parisian manners are far removed from the rules of decorum that reign in the provinces – cannot open his heart to his lovely intended. Stung, the latter decides to punish his arrogance while a former lover arrives to prevent the marriage. Between the alliance of master and manservant, and the complicity of mistress and maid, a romantic intrigue ensues full of light-hearted conspiracies and feverish emotions.

Character: Tom Lesage
Released: January 15, 2014
Type: Movie
Raised to believe in performance and in the idea that all abilities must be optimized, Emma is a young, methodical woman who appears determined and relatively sure of herself. But two consecutive failures (real or imagined) lead her to believe that she has a real problem: she is useless in bed. Because she is more fragile than she appears, Emma hence decides to become... the best lay in Paris! She then sets out on a formidable plan of action (theory, practical, validation of acquired knowledge), which soon provokes a series of misunderstandings and disasters within her immediate vicinity. For one thing, her method doesn't turn out to be really adapted to her field of investigation. And Emma has probably also forgotten a little detail: love doesn't obey any plan. In this absurd and nutty quest, Emma will learn to let go, to lose control, and, to finally win her freedom.
