Master Class-Noé Debré

Born in 1986 in Strasbourg, Noé Debré decided early on that he wanted to be a doctor. Lacking the skills and empathy, he instead pursued a career in screenwriting. Moving to Paris, he met Thomas Bidegain, who taught him everything one needs to know about writing a script, especially how to lure directors and abandon all self-esteem. Since then, he has collaborated on a number of films including Jacques Audiard's “Dheepan” (Palme d'Or at Cannes), Romain Gavras' “The World is yours” and Tom McCarthy's “Stillwater”. He has also directed some short films and despite the protests of his family and friends, completed a feature film as well, “le Dernier des Juifs”. He is now thinking of moving away from showbusiness to rigorously prepare for the end of the world, which he, along with most serious climate scientists, thinks is impending.
