Nora DeLigter is a filmmaker and writer based in New York City.

Her film won the jury prize for Best Documentary Short at the Montclair Film Festival, and her work has been distributed and featured by Vimeo Staff Picks and NOWNESS.
Nora’s written work explores micro-obsessions and fringe behaviors in contemporary culture, from embedding with a cult in Bed-Stuy to polling strangers on how—and why—they steal from Whole Foods Market, to documenting small-town soap operas like the Springs General Store saga. Her work has been published by New York Magazine, Screen Slate, and Vogue. Nora is a graduate of the UnionDocs Documentary Lab and holds a bachelor’s degree in writing and comparative literature from Bard College.
