There was an article on this very topic just recently:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/12/26/linux_video_editors/

The focus there is on Linux Mint, except for one which was tested under
Debian.  Maybe one of those takes your fancy?

Last time I did any serious multimedia stuff, I think my toolkit
consisted of Audacity for producing the sound track, then a combination
of Perl, GNU Make, netpbm and ffmpeg to take a series of photos, do the
necessary transformations then assemble them into a video.
