Early life and education
Alma Noce was born and raised in San Salvario, Turin. She received her first audition invitation at the age of five, but had to turn it down when she moved to Thailand with her mother for a year and a half.[8] She later landed her first role at seven, sparking a lifelong passion for acting. Although she has never received formal acting training,[9] her co-star Gianni Morandi praised her as "the most talented of all". Due to an injury, she had to give up ballet, horseback riding, and rowing.
She attended the Liceo Classico high school and completed her studies privately, balancing her education with the filming of L'isola di Pietro. She is bilingual and fluent in both Italian and English.[10][11]
Career
Alma Noce began her career as a child actress, appearing in various Italian television programs and films such as Dracula 3D, Qualunque cosa succeda and Fuoriclasse.
Her breakthrough came at the age of 16, when she played Caterina Rovandi, a prominent role in the TV series L'isola di Pietro, starring alongside Gianni Morandi, who portrayed her grandfather.
In 2020, she landed her first significant role in cinema, portraying the teenage version of Gemma in The Best Years.[12] She later took on her first leading role in The Girl Flew,[13] which premiered in the Horizons Extra sidebar at the 78th Venice International Film Festival.
In 2024, Noce gained widespread recognition for her performance in The Art of Joy, a television series directed by Valeria Golino. Her role earned her the Nobis Foundation Award at the 2025 Nastro d'Argento as the most talented young actress.[14]
