Dan and Bramwell Noah are Australian film directors, producers, and screenwriters.

Their early works were short films in genres as diverse as the human rights drama ‘Massacre of the Innocents’[1] and the magical realism of ’The Fabled Fable’ .[2]

'According to Ben Adams' (their debut feature release)[3] saw the brothers continue in a supernatural vein to tell the story of what happens when the devil in a bad mood meets a gentle madman claiming to be Jesus.[4] The production debuted on the international film festival circuit in Toronto[5] and New York[6] before going on to pick up multiple awards including "Best Narrative Feature"[7] and "Best Drama" at both the Los Angeles Film Awards[8] and at the Mexico International Film Festival.[9] Bramwell Noah (in the role of The Devil) also won "Best Actor" at the ReelHeART International Film and Screenplay Festival.[10] The title role was played by Daniel Schepisi[11] (nephew of director Fred Schepisi.[12]) in his feature film debut.

'I, Timon'[13] (based on Shakespeare's Timon of Athens) once again saw the brothers achieve international festival award recognition in most main categories (including multiple special jury award prizes).[14][15] This also included their first win for "Best Screenplay"[16] and two trophies for "Best Actor" (Bramwell Noah in the title role of Timon) at the 2018 American Movie Awards[17] and Los Angeles Movie Awards.[18] Additional nominations included "Best Director" and "Best Cinematography" at the Hoboken International Film Festival[19] and for "Best Musical Score" at the Maverick Movie Awards.[20]

'Something To Do With Death' premiered at the 2018 ReelHeART International Film and Screenplay Festival in Toronto,[21] where it picked up five nominations and won "Best Foreign Film" (with foreign defined as a non-Canadian produced film).[22] A dark and original take on a man with a past and crime in the blood,[23] the production features Chinese-born actress Lu Yi, Yanik Khoshnow and Bramwell Noah. In 2019 it was an official selection at the Los Angeles Film Awards[24] and a "Best Picture" nominee at the New York Film Awards where Lu Yi picked up the award for "Best Actress".[25]

2022 saw the festival release of 'Song Without Words'[26] - with the tagline "Some robots are more real than others" - and awards for "Direction" and "Leading Actress" (Annie Thorold) at The IndieFEST Film Awards in California. [27] In the same month, the unproduced Bramwell Noah prison drama 'A Rumour of Angels' was announced as an official screenplay selection at the Beverley Hills Film Festival.[28]
