Louise Debatin

Okay, so — I’d describe myself as a traveling mind and person: always on the move, curious about learning new things, taking on new challenges, and living in different corners of this beautiful planet. So far, besides Germany, I’ve lived in Switzerland, the US, and France — where I left my heart in a Parisian movie theater. And since October, I’ve been learning to code and create websites from scratch.

I’m in awe of the French and British film markets — their style of storytelling, their humor, and the characters they bring to life — and I would literally die to work in international productions.

At the moment, I’m still working as a freelance actress in Berlin, trying to get a hold of the German film market, shifting my focus back and forth between theater and film, as I feel inspired by both very different fields.

In the 2025/26 season, my freelance life will take a little pause, and my home base will move to Thüringen, as I’ll be joining the ensemble of the Staatstheater Meiningen.
