GERMAINE DULAC

'Germaine Dulac' (17 November 1882, Amiens, France - 20 July 1942, Paris) was a French film director and early film theorist.
Famously, she directed ''The Seashell and the Clergyman'' (1928), based on a scenario by Antonin Artaud. This film has been credited as the first surrealist film, released shortly before ''Un Chien Andalou'' (1929) by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali.
