Chloé Ortolé
Chloé Ortolé is an independent film producer of Caribbean origin based in Dakar, Senegal. After working for several years in film production in Paris, she moved to Dakar in 2020 and set up her own production company, Tangerine productions, to produce bold, high-quality, creative and diverse films that reflect today's African society with a focus on fiction and genre.
In 2021, she co-founded Kimpavita, a cultural, feminist and eco-responsible festival in Dakar. The event is punctuated by live arts performances, conferences and film screenings by young filmmakers from the African continent and the diaspora.
In 2022, the company launched the first eco-responsible production service for large-scale shootings in West Africa. In 2023, the first short film produced by the company, Timis by Awa Moctar Gueye, made its world premiere at the 73rd Berlinale in the Generations section.
