A short film by Lebanese director and actress Angela Mrad, Feminization presents a psychological and symbolic dramatic treatment exploring the image of women within a society shaped by social restrictions and stereotypical perceptions. The film relies on expressive visual construction, using imagery associated with isolation, suffocation, and identity.

The work approaches the psychological state of its main character through atmosphere, lighting, and visual composition rather than direct conventional storytelling. Smoke, framing, and color tones become central elements in expressing the character’s internal conflict.

The film also places strong emphasis on performance as a key element in building dramatic tension, giving the work a cinematic atmosphere close to psychological short cinema.

At the second edition of the Kobani International Film Festival in 2021, the film received the Best Actress Award, while the award itself was presented to actress Angela Mrad in recognition of her performance in the film.
