JUST A SMILE - HIMAYA (NGO)

A short film for Himaya NGO in partnership with Concern worldwide and with the funding support of the Irish Aid. The film was the center of a social media campaign aiming at promoting positive family dynamics and breaking gender stereotypes in Northern areas of Lebanon. It was screened in those areas and is being used during sessions with kids and adults as a tool for discussing certain issues within their society concerning the role of the father and man in the household and evidently family dynamics.

I worked on the Art direction and set design of the film, and was also part of storyboarding and concept creation alongside the director, production team, and social workers.
