TL;DR Summary

"Femme," directed by Ng Choon Ping and Sam H. Freeman, presents a complex narrative of revenge and self-empowerment as Jules, a drag performer, seeks retribution against a man who assaulted and humiliated him. The film's stylish visuals and portrayal of queer life are juxtaposed with its morally murky themes, raising questions about the justification of revenge and the portrayal of queer violence. While the movie's sleek cinematography and compelling performances capture the protagonist's inner conflicts, it also faces criticism for its portrayal of reclaiming power from hate.
