FEATHERS directed by Omar El Zohairy

Omar El Zohairy (La Sélection 2014 and La Résidence 2016) presents his feature film « FEATHERS », Nespresso Grand Prize at the 2021 Critics’ Week.

 

When a magic trick goes awry at a children’s birthday party, the authoritative father of the family turns into a chicken. An avalanche of coincidental absurdities befalls everyone; the mother, whose mundane life was dedicated to her husband and children, is now urged to come to the fore and take care of her family. While moving heaven and earth to bring her husband back and secure their survival, she goes through a total transformation.

In theaters on March 23rd 2022.
