Complete filmography
BiographyIn 1986, after obtaining a degree in modern literature and film studies, Noémie Lvovsky enrolled in the screenwriting department at the FEMIS film school. She scripted several shorts, including her diploma film, "Dis-moi oui, dis-moi non," which won awards at various festivals. Lvovsky has also worked with Arnaud Desplechin as casting director for "La Vie des morts" and "The Sentinel" (which she co-wrote). Her first feature, "Forget Me" (1995, starring Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi as a young Parisian woman clinging on to an ex-lover who wants to be rid of her), won awards at the Venice, Belfort and Berlin film festivals. Lvovsky then participated on the screenplays for Philippe Garrel's "Coeur fantôme," Yolande Zauberman's "Clubbed to Death" and, with Florence Seyvos, "Ferme les yeux et creuse la neige." In 1996–1997, Lvovsky directed "Petites" for the ARTE television channel, about four school girls in the 1970s. This tale resurfaces in "Life is for Loving," her second feature, which won critical and public acclaim upon its release in 1999 and went on to win the Jean Vigo Prize and the Silver Leopard at the Locarno Film Festival.
