Lou Zidi grew up in Paris, where she obtained a high school diploma with a focus on audiovisual studies before joining EICAR in the directing program. Surrounded by a loyal team that still supports her today, she wrote and directed her first short films there, including NINO, which was selected and awarded in France and internationally. In 2019, she directed and produced the short film Couleur Menthe à l’eau, which was selected by numerous festivals and won a Special Mention from the Student Jury at the Paris Courts Devant festival, as well as a Special Mention from La maison du film’s film label. Currently, she is developing her mini-series Les petites mains, produced by Delante Productions and N9NE, which was selected for the Co-pro Pitching Sessions at Séries Mania in 2022 and was awarded the Beaumarchais Writing Grant. She is also working on her first feature film, Quand on sera grand. Representation: Raphaelle Danglard at UBBA https://www.ubba.eu/fiche/agent/raphaelle-danglard/scenariste/lou-zidi
