How it all started...
ZAïA LEBTAHI PRODUCTIONS is born right after the sale of my french restaurant, Ratata Buffet Froid et Petits Plats, that has known four years of an incredible success. Ratata was the first step of my career as an entrepreneur in the U.S.
I remember the great fear that I had of launching myself in restaurant industry as an owner and barely speaking English. But my natural talent for cooking, my common sense, my education, and my strong experience as a writer-director and producer of high-rated T.V shows in Paris, enabled me to out-grow this challenge despite the barrier of language and millions of other obstacles along the way. Thankfully, the fact that I was a novice gave me the opportunity to do all the possible mistakes and therefore to gain at a maximum in this adventure.
I sold Ratata iOctober 30th, 2012. ZAïA LEBTAHI PRODUCTIONS was born November 1st, 2012.
The kids I've worked with and all the other ones who are and have been in my life remind me of what is essential for an artist: how to stay the kid that I am and how to love unconditionally to be able to share.
The vocation of Z.E.P is to share with others the multiplicity of point of views that offers the artistic creation. The goal of Z.E.P is to show the bright side of life, to remind us how beautiful, pleasant and fun life can be if we allow ourselves to be as free as the children that we are and that that is the way to be the best entrepreneur of our own happiness.
"(...) To the lone-dwellers will I sing my song, and to the twain-dwellers: and unto him who hath still ears for the unheard will I make the heart heavy with my happiness.(...)"
-Frederick Nietzche (Thus Spoke Zarathustra)
