KIDAM

KIDAM is a film production company based in Paris.
It was founded in 2006 by producer Alexandre Perrier and director Jeremiah, and was originally focused on pop/rock musical films and experimental works

Our work includes music videos & live performances, but also feature & short films both for cinema and television, with a special focus on south America co-production.

We are also developping new narrative forms with documentaries and web projects such as the Take-away shows and the City Series.

TAKE AWAY SHOWS

The 'Take away shows' video podcasts (in French : Concerts à emporter) have been created in 2006 for La Blogotheque by Chryde, who wanted to shake things up and find another way to share music, and Vincent Moon, who wanted to film music differently. Since then, other directors across the world joined this project, among others Jeremiah for Kidam.
Every week, La Blogotheque invites an artist or a band to play in the streets, in a bar, a park, or even in a flat or in an elevator. What makes the beauty of it is all the little incidents, hesitations, and crazy stuff happening unexpectingly. Our goal is to try and capture the music just like it happens, without preparation, without tricks. Spontaneity is the keyword.

radio 4: Analysis- thought experiments

Studies have shown that if the smell of fresh bread is in the air we are far more generous than otherwise. In the past few years, a fascinating range of experiments has begun to shed light on the moral choices humans make. Philosopher Janet Radcliffe Richards asks whether the results can tell us not just how we tend to behave, but how we should behave.
