What It’s All About —

Noam grew up in an apartment outside of Disney World after immigrating to the US. Her films often center on unlikely heroes who defy stereotypes, examining issues of identity through intimate relationships. No matter the project, she is driven by unassuming people doing the unique and incredible. Noam is based in Brooklyn and collaborates with her much cooler, LA-based, “baby” sister - Sappir Argov.
