Becoming Plant

Shortfilm, Color 4k, 10 minutes

The film connects themes such as menstruation, the female body, and its transformation through the concept of “becoming a plant.”
Using images and fragments such as fruit, blood, scissors, gardens, and water, it outlines this process of becoming a plant, thus raising perspectives that decentralize the human form, questioning the oppression and violence of women and nature and the connection between them.
