The Overwoman
Synopsis
The Overwoman reworks the cinematic trope of the femme fatale to explore trans-diasporic identity in a society drifting toward fascism. By subverting Nietzsche’s Übermensch—later appropriated by right-wing ideologies—the film critiques Western exceptionalism and examines how its myths shape and discipline queer existence.
