About this submission

In a world where young girls are forced into marriages with much older men, Rekiya fights to break free from the oppressive grip of tradition and reclaim her future. This collaborative film was brought to life through the combined efforts of a dedicated team. As the cinematographer, I worked closely with the director and crew to visually translate Rekiya’s emotional journey, using light, composition, and movement to amplify the story’s impact. Together, we aimed to create a powerful and authentic portrayal of resilience and hope
