Deborah was named as one of the Biggest Breakout Female Filmmakers by Harper’s Bazaar in 2018, and a Screen International Star of Tomorrow in 2007. Her debut feature film, Pin Cushion (2018) opened Critic’s Week at Venice International Film Festival in 2017, was nominated for three BIFAs, and long-listed for the Evening Standard Awards.
