Michelle Keserwany and Noel Keserwany are Lebanese musicians, writers, and filmmakers. The sisters are known for their satirical music videos that criticize the Lebanese corrupt political system. Ever since Michelle co-wrote Capernaum with director Nadine Labaki (Academy Award nominee, winner of the Prix du Jury in Cannes 2018 as well as Best Script Award at Stockholm IFF), they started their own film projects, including the political documentary Slow Burn, a co-production between France and Lebanon, produced by Special Touch Studios and supported by the CNC. Between 2019 and 2021, they both received grants from the French Institute to reside at La Cite des Arts in Paris and work on their film projects. They live between Beirut and Paris.
Noel is currently writing her first fiction film "Un An" and developing an animated short film Seven Mountains and Seven Seas, grantee of the DFI Production Fund, and produced by Dewberries Films.
Michelle is currently developing her first animated feature film "Ouzkourini", produced by Special Touch Studios. In 2021, she received the CNC's Aide au Parcours d’Auteur grant, to develop her first fiction feature film "Amara", a satirical political drama that takes place in Beirut.
The sisters' debut short fiction film "Les Chenilles" was written by Michelle, and directed by her and Noel, who also plays one of the lead roles in it. The film is co-produced by La Biennale de Lyon and Dewberries Films.
