Rosemine Safy-Borget

 

With an atypical career path, French author Rosemine Safy-Borget has developed a writing style that blends documentary, sensitive storytelling, and the performing arts. After an initial career in international finance and consulting, she chose to devote herself to creative writing, using her observations of reality and human trajectories as the raw material for her literary work.

Trained in documentary and screenwriting at the CEFPF, she refined a narrative approach based on investigation, memory, and embodied speech. As a finalist in France Télévisions’ ANARCHY transmedia program, she explored hybrid forms combining writing, images, and immersive experiences from an early age.

Her career as an interpreter has deeply influenced her perspective as an author, notably in Ruben Alves’ film MISS, as well as on stage with Joël Pommerat at the Théâtre des Amandiers. These experiences have shaped her writing, which is attentive to bodies, silence and invisible narratives.

Today, Rosemine Safy-Borget develops literary and documentary projects rooted in questions of identity, transmission, and intercultural dialogue, seeking a form of writing where reality becomes a space for narration and encounter.
