Goth moved to Brazil when she was a few weeks old, because her mother, who was 20 years old at the time, needed help from her family in order to raise her.[4] They returned to the United Kingdom when she was five and later briefly relocated to her father's native Canada when she was ten.[4] There, she attended nine schools in a single schoolyear and stated that the period they tried to live with her father was difficult.[4] Aged twelve, she and her mother settled in south-east London, where Goth went to secondary school.[4]

When Goth was 14, she was discovered at the Underage Festival in London by fashion photographer Gemma Booth, who signed her to Storm Model Management. She subsequently appeared in advertisements for Vogue and Miu Miu. She began to audition for films at the age of 16, and after finishing sixth form, she won her first role in Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac (2013), along with Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe in the segment "The Gun".[7][8] Later, she played Sophie Campbell in an episoe of Sky Atlantic's crime drama series The Tunnel.[7][9]

In 2014, Goth appeared in the Future Unlimited's music video for "Haunted Love," which was directed by Shia LaBeouf.[10] Later, she appeared in Stephen Fingleton's directed introductory short film Magpie along with Martin McCann.[10] In 2015, Goth played the lead role of Milja in the post-apocalyptic thriller The Survivalist, followed by roles as Meg Weathers in the disaster adventure-thriller film Everest (2015), directed by Baltasar Kormákur,[7][8] and Hanna Helmqvist in an episode of BBC One's crime series Wallander.[10]

She also appeared in the horror film A Cure for Wellness (2016), directed by Gore Verbinski;[8] a supporting role in Luca Guadagnino's remake of Suspiria (2018); and the sci-fi mystery film High Life (2018), directed by Claire Denis.[11] Goth went on to appear in Guadagnino's short film The Staggering Girl (2019)[12] and Autumn de Wilde's film Emma (2020).[13]
