Laurence Markarian
French-American Screenwriter
An American world through a French lens.
Stories of human nature, moral choices, and unexpected turns of life,
inspired by the people and landscapes of America.

Hello! Bonjour !
I'm a French-American screenwriter living in Montana, where the people, landscapes, and unexpected stories of the American West provide endless inspiration for my writing.
My screenplays explore human relationships, moral choices, and the complexities of life—often leaving audiences with questions that linger long after the story ends.
I've written six feature-length screenplays, several of which have received recognition in international screenplay competitions.

A hit-and-run leaves a young man permanently paralyzed. When the case goes to trial, a homeless eyewitness becomes central to the prosecution—but reasonable doubt may prove more powerful than the truth.
