Dubai, United Arab Emirates-Wednesday 9 September 2020 [ AETOS Wire ]
After
the success of COVID-19 PSAs like Hope, a story of depression during
the pandemic and a tribute to COVID-19 frontliners with Tomorrow Never
Came, Zen Film Productions has now released The Wave. The Wave, directed
by Zenofar Fathima, is a suspenseful 10 minute short film that advises
the select few who fail to abide by government mandated precautions to
stay safe and be responsible, portraying a possible scenario that could
occur due to the lack of patience after the end of lockdowns and relaxed
restrictions globally. The PSA comes shortly after exceptional
government efforts were made to flatten the curve all around the world,
propagating the message that it is now in our hands to ensure their
efforts are not in vain, using the famous tagline #WeAreResponsible.
The
film not only offers a poignant reminder to us all as we assimilate
into the new normal, but it does so through a plethora of characters who
become intertwined in a story of fear and uncertainty, owed to their
false perception that COVID-19 has come to an end. In doing so, there is
an emphasis on what external activities the public should pursue, as
well as those that are not a necessity, and should thus be avoided to
curb virus resurgence altogether. The film has been quoted “an eye
opener in the current scenario”, whilst Zenofar’s acting has been cited
as “chillingly real, depicting how impatient some people can get during
these trying times”.
Another highlight of the film is that it
not only educates the public on how we must take responsibility to
control future waves of the Coronavirus, but it also promises to keep
audiences enthralled from start to finish. “We aren’t just reminding
people of the fact that the authorities have done their job and that we
are now responsible,” says the Dubai-based filmmaker. “But the movie is
also sure to keep you on the edge of your seat, prompting everyone to
realise the impact of their past and future actions in a COVID-19
world”. The Wave is out now on YouTube on the House of Zen YouTube
channel. For more information and updates on Zenofar’s future projects,
