Fauze Hassen

Fauze Hassen’s filmography is honestly a wild ride if you’re into movies that don’t just spoon-feed you the same old stuff. Where Butterflies Perish (2020)? That one’s a trip. It gets under your skin, all dreamy and weird, not afraid to get a little dark when it needs to. The story kind of floats between memory and reality, playing with loss and hope and how people hang onto the tiniest scraps of happiness, even when everything’s falling apart. The visuals are lush, almost hypnotic—like you blink and suddenly you’re questioning if that scene even happened or if you just imagined it. Then there’s Sky Tower (2023). Big shift. Way more kinetic, honestly, with a plot that’s always one step ahead of you. Set in this sprawling city where secrets are currency and trust is basically a joke, the main character’s scrambling to survive, caught between shady deals and some not-so-friendly faces. The pacing? Relentless. It keeps you on edge, second-guessing every motive and every move, with some sly humor slipped in. It’s less about good vs. evil and more about surviving in a world that chews people up and spits them out. Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys (2019) is a whole other beast. Satirical, a bit absurd, but sharp as hell. It pokes fun at chaos, bureaucracy, and the circus of everyday life. The characters are quirky and the situations veer from hilarious to uncomfortably real. Hassen’s movies don’t just entertain—they kind of dare you to pay attention, to notice the details, and maybe see yourself in the mess.
