The first woman in film history, Alice Guy began her career in 1894 as the secretary in a still-photography company owned by Léon Gaumont. Thanks to her talent and her strength of character, she became a pioneer of the cinema and, in the space of a decade, a director and producer of Gaumont Studios. She invented 'fiction cinema', using actors for the first time on camera.

In 1910, Alice Guy and her husband, Herbert Blacé, founded the film studios of The Solax Company in Fort Lee, New Jersey. There the French woman who was not afraid of anything made action movies that were more responsive to the taste of the American public: comedies of manners, westerns, military films, car chases…
