Biography
Nadine Labaki is a Lebanese actress, director, and activist. Born February 18, 1974, she first gained recognition as an actress in the early 2000s. Her filmmaking career launched in 2007 with Caramel, her debut feature, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and established her signature style: documenting everyday Lebanese life through a deeply political lens. She went on to direct films exploring war, poverty, and feminism—themes woven throughout her work. In 2018, Capernaum marked her third directorial effort and secured a historic nomination: she became the first female Arab director ever nominated for an Oscar in the Best Foreign Language Film category. As a screenwriter and actor, Labaki combines behind-the-camera storytelling with on-screen presence. An Aquarius born in mid-February, her life-path number is 5, a numerological signature associated with restlessness and the drive to expose hidden truths. Based in Lebanon, she remains rooted in her country's texture and crisis, refusing to aestheticize suffering but rather centering it as the substance of cinema.
