Gaspar Noé is an Argentinian writer and director, known for cult films I Stand Alone (1998), Irreversible (2002), and Enter the Void (2009), son of the painter and intellectual Felipe Noe.

Noé has been inspired by Beatnik writer William Burroughs, and auteur filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, and claims that seeing 2001: A Space Odyssey when he was seven influenced his whole desire to be a director. His films share a common thread in the exploration of the ‘cinema of the body’ , using experimental filmmaking techniques, distorted sense of narrative, and provoking subject to evoke a sense of nihilism in his work. Into the Void also featured on screen use of the drug DMT to evoke and out of body narration and surreal psychic journey that was the basis of the film.

Noé was born in Argentina in 1963 and graduated from Louis Lumiere College. He is currently the visiting professor of film at the European Graduate School in Switzerland.

He is currently producing a feature film called ‘Love’, which he wrote, directed and produced.
