Image Nation Abu Dhabi – the capital-based film and TV production company – has its eyes set on the 76th Venice International Festival happening from 28th August to 7th September 2019.
The company’s feature film, Scales, will premiere at the prestigious festival as part of the Critics Week competition.
Scales is a dystopian film about a young girl who accepts her destiny when she stands alone against her family and overturns the village tradition of sacrificing female children to the mysterious creatures inhabiting the waters nearby.
The movie is the first debut feature film of Saudi Arabian writer and director Shahad Ameen and based on her award-winning short film.

Image Nation Abu Dhabi made news in February this year after its co-produced documentary, Free Solo, won the Oscar for Best Documentary.
