- It was a pleasure to join
Léo Mattéï
's team,
which is really very nice.
My collaboration with Jean-Luc Reichmann and Nathalie Lecoultre went wonderfully well and I have great memories of this very welcoming team.
It would have been a pleasure to shoot with them every day!
(Laughs.)
Tell us about your role...
I play Nadia Guichard, the sister of Aurélien played by Jean-Baptiste Maunier, who is the babysitter of the Lemonniers, played by Lucie Lucas and Alexis Loret.
The Lemonniers' son will be put in danger, which leads to the intervention of Léo Mattéï's brigade.
What we don't know is that Nadia and Aurélien are much closer to the action than we imagine.

Your character is very different from the one you played in
Here it all begins
...
Nadia, whose first name echoes that of my own mother in real life, suffers from multiple sclerosis.
This is the first time I played a lame character where I had to wear barely any makeup and not much accentuated.
I loved.
I dream of being able to play diverse roles that take me out of my comfort zone to be able to show other sides of me.
Metamorphosis doesn't scare me, on the contrary.
I would like to be able to show that I am capable of completely detaching myself from the physical to devote myself to a compositional character totally opposed to my habits.
You also filmed in
Camping Paradis
...
Camping Paradis
is a little bit of vacation.
Filming by the sea with a very friendly crew and a caring script was fun.
We had a lot of fun with Ilona Bachelier and Cyril Durel with whom I share the screen in this episode.
Playing a deeply gentle and kind character and being able to bring a new side seemed beneficial to me.
It was more complicated than I imagined to play someone so nice without falling into stupidity.
I had gotten used to playing “bad” roles!
(Laughs.)
“My husband is a wonderful man who surpasses my own conceptions of what an infinitely good person can be”
Pola Petrenko
Have you done any other filming since
Léo Mattéï
and
Camping Paradis
?
I finished shooting at the end of November.
In December I moved to another country and then in January I planned my wedding.
I've barely taken the time to breathe and enjoy my new love life when I resume filming in March for a project that you know.
But I can't say anything more...
You were supposed to move to Los Angeles with your fiancé. Where are you today?
Unfortunately or fortunately, I have projects that keep me in France.
I also just had my wedding and am constantly looking for excuses to postpone
“the day of the big departure”
.
The thought of my husband and I being separated for several weeks breaks our hearts.
Especially since we spent the beginning of our relationship at a distance.
We finally have the chance to live together and enjoy our love.
It's complicated to juggle love life and career.
But we both know how important trying to have a career is to me, so I can't dwell too long...
Your meeting with your husband who is a racing driver sounds like a fairy tale...
We met at a dinner with friends.
The story of our meeting is as exciting as what we experienced afterwards.
It was nothing, and yet today we are married and very happy.
He is a wonderful man who surpasses my own conceptions of what an infinitely good person can be.
I learn from him every day.
After a year spent on circuits all over the world, waiting with other team members during races, I can say that I am starting to have a good level of expertise in his profession.
Perhaps this is the start of a new career as an automotive commentator and journalist?
