Luisa Nöllke

Luisa Nöllke is a screenwriter with a special focus on character-driven stories written in both German and English.

After completing her screenwriting diploma at HFF Munich in 2023, where she graduated as top of her class in Media Studies, Luisa is currently pursuing a second degree in Production and Media Business. This program allows her to understand the entire filmmaking process, which simultaneously enriches her work as a writer. Luisa is thus able to accompany projects from the initial idea to their final realization.

Since 2021, Luisa has gained valuable experience in series development: as Junior Writer at Warner Brothers International Television, as Writers’ Assistant at Gaumont, and as a writer for the children’s series Schloss Einstein. In 2022, she completed a two-month writing seminar at NYU in New York. Since January 2024, Luisa has also been working as a script editor for ZDF and SRF, where she evaluates screenplays dramaturgically and provides targeted feedback for their development.

Luisa’s particular strength lies in character development and authentic dialogue. Her work delves deeply into interpersonal relationships – sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, often both at once.

Films Luisa has contributed to as a writer have been showcased at prestigious festivals, including the Venice International Film Festival, Filmfest Hamburg, and the Max Ophüls Prize. Beyond writing, Luisa is actively involved in mentoring and jury work.
