Xbo films

Based in Toulouse since 2003, Xbo films has 2 studios: La Ménagerie for stopmotion, and Les Affranchis for 2D. Its productions have been shown at numerous festivals, including Florence Miailhe's Papillon and Cynthia Calvi's Gigi, both shortlisted for the César Awards, and Natalia León's Como si la tierra se las hubiera tragado, which won the Jury Prize at Sundance this year.

After Florence Miailhe's La Traversée in 2021, several short films and Tv specials have found their way into cinemas: Eric Montchaud's Un caillou dans la chaussure, Sonia Gerbeaud's Le garçon et l'éléphant, Julie Rembauville and Nicolas Bianco-Levrin's Marcel, le Père Noël (et le Petit Livreur de Pizzas), accompanied by Tom Chertier's Une histoire d'histoires (...) de Noël, and Myriam Schott and Linda Yi's Zoobox in 2025. The paper cut-out series Contes d'Oc by Nikita Fraysse is available on France TV, as is the series currently in production, Pion-nes by Marie-Pierre Hauwelle and Gildas Rigo.
