The Ideal Form

6 views

Set in the 1980s, this short film follows an anonymous character—less a person than a social phenomenon. It explores physical standards imposed on women by men. Like a beautiful, innocent red rose, the protagonist moves through a dark world reflecting her troubled mind and body. Oppressed by omnipresent ads, she is pushed to the brink of aesthetic exaggeration. Paying tribute to the "man with the strange hair," the film draws from Lynch’s universe and modern horror to depict this alienation.

biography

My name is Nawfel Brehin, 23. As a film student, I live my dream every day. My vision is shaped by street culture, rap, and cinema classics. I bring this heritage to my films, because "movies are attacked for their violence, but nothing is done about the violence in the real world."
