Actor and director Félix Moati made his début in Lisa Azuelos’ LOL followed by Pirate TV by Michel Leclerc – winning him his first nomination for the César Award for Most Promising Actor –, Nice and Easy by Benjamin Guedj, Hippocrates by Thomas Lilti and Jérôme Bonnell’s All About Them. In 2016, his first short Après Suzanne was In Competition in the Festival de Cannes’ Short Films category. He pursued his acting career in France in Sou Abadi’s Some Like It Veiled and Sink or Swim by Gilles Lellouche (presented Out of Competition in 2018), and abroad with Resistance by Jonathan Jakubowicz and Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch. Alongside this, he released his first feature film, Father and Sons, to universal acclaim. With a starring role in Fabien Gorgeart’s The Family in 2022, Félix Moati will soon be back on the silver screen again in Not My Type by Michel Leclerc.
