Education and career

De Caunes began acting in 1988 at the age of 12 with a role in Margot et le voleur d'enfants, a short film by director Michèle Reiser, her godmother.[4] She obtained her French baccalauréat in film in 1995 after high school.[5]

De Caunes appeared in various commercials before her first major film role in 1997 in Sylvie Verheyde's Un frère.
