Her very first feature set the tone. She edited and co-wrote Léonor Serraille’s Jeune Femme, which took the Caméra d’or at Cannes in 2017 and earned a César nomination for Best First Film. Since then she has cut Serraille’s Un petit frère, in Official Competition at Cannes in 2022, and 27 ans et demi (Ari), in Competition at the Berlinale in 2025.

Her range covers fiction features, series like Zorro and HP, documentaries, TV films and hybrids of live action and animation.
