Ella Rumpf was born in 1995 in Paris and grew up bilingual (German / French) in Zurich.
In 2011 she made her acting debut in the feature film SUMMER OUTSIDE (DRAUSSEN IST SUMMER), directed by Friederike Jehn. This experience was the catalyst for Ella to follow her career as an actress and to study acting in London. Before she began her studies however, she was cast for the role of Ali in the multi-award winning feature film WAR (CHRIEG) by Simon Jaquemet and nominated in the category “Best Supporting Actress” for the Swiss Film Award. This was followed by leading roles in other films, such as TIGER GIRL by Jakob Lass and RAW by Julia Ducournau.

Reviews RAW - Press Break in Cannes

“This truly well-made and completely ‘mutant’ debut feature by Julia Ducournau is a gory piece that is completely original, thrilling and, in a word, impressive”

(ER_Raw_Cineuropa_15052016)

“Mit diesem Film hat sich Julia Ducournau auf Anhieb einen Namen gemacht als jemand, der sowohl Horror als auch Coming-of-Age-Geschichte kann.”

(ER_Raw_SpiegelOnline_17052016)

“Strikingly original and teeming with talented performers, Raw carries a distinct air of being ‘this year’s It Follows’, another horror that left the Semaine with huge praise. If all goes as it should, Raw has the potential to replicate that picture’s runaway, sleeper success.”

(ER_Raw_Frowning_17052016)

“Raw is smarter than it looks at first glance, and Ducournau’s sharp writing keeps the viewer on edge, as she pushes her audience towards Justine every time she threatens to lose our sympathy.”
