BIOGRAPHY

 

Mathilde Nocquet is a bold, visionary writer and director with over fifteen years of experience in advertising and filmmaking.

​

A graduate of the prestigious École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, she made her mark with striking short films, including The Beatle Chiche Kebab with Lofti Labidi and Karim Leklou. She began professionally as an assistant director on African Gangster by César-winning Jean-Pascal Zadi, and, barely out of school, was already collaborating with luxury brands like L’Oréal and Lacoste, as well as acclaimed production houses Soixante Quinze and Division Paris.

​

Her career took her abroad. In Australia for several years, she created La Nocquette, a razor-sharp, award-winning series celebrated at the Miami Fashion Film Festival and Los Angeles Neo Noir Festival, while directing campaigns for international brands including BMW. She later moved to London, bringing her distinctive vision to the prestigious Pulse Films and Black Dog Films.

​

Back in France, she forged landmark collaborations with agencies like BETC and Publicis for brands including Lancôme, Puma, and Zalando. At the same time, she developed her first feature film, Misshapen, a wildly inventive, stylish horror-comedy. She then returned to post-production to produce a new version of Wing, a tense short film exploring the turbulence of teenage jealousy.

​

Her work is defined by a singular, cinematic lens on femininity, where polished aesthetics meet gripping storytelling.
