Laurence Grun

Laurence Grun is a Belgian filmmaker and journalist, with a background in photography, journalism, and political science. Her projects, always approached from a social and environmental perspective, question the ways of world-making and explore the impact of industrialization on territories and living beings.

She contributed to the writing, research, and production of DREMMWEL, an augmented-narrative documentary on intensive fishing in the Eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean. She later co-directed Bargny, Here Begins the Emergence, a transmedia documentary analyzing the environmental and social consequences of major redevelopment projects in Senegal, as well as [P2O5], The Toxic Impact of Phosphate, a long-term investigation carried out in Tunisia, Senegal, France, Spain, and Belgium on the production and use of phosphate-based chemical fertilizers.
