Sasha Behar is a Franco American screenwriter and sometimes illustrator raised in the most insignificant arrondissement of Paris, the 15th. She grew up on family stories of Irish drunken resistance, Catalan drunken resistance, and the sardonic chronicles of Sephardic Jewish survival.

Her love of film began at the age of five when she accompanied her carpenter father to work on the set of Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. Coppola was as slight as a twelve-year old — she walked across the great courtyard and spoke very quietly to her actors as everyone waited. You could hear a pin drop. She fell in love like you fall in love, suddenly and with great intensity.       Behar graduated with High Honors from the Sorbonne University in 2020, where she pursued studies in English, History, and Film. Over the years, she has held a variety of jobs in the film and television industry. From her early days as a PA to her roles as a Director's and Showrunner’s Assistant, she has worked on productions for Disney+, HBO, Gaumont, and Prime Video.

Sasha has written two shorts, two pilots, and two feature-length screenplays, ranging in themes of class rage, female identity, the weight of being raised by a raging alcoholic, and the weight of raising one’s parent. She plans to one day write and direct her own feature films.
