What makes 'Nood' truly extraordinary is the diversity in storytelling; each episode is a unique gem created by a different writer or duo. My collaborative contribution to this series is the episode titled Payback, co-written with Zainab Goelaman.
Payback (2023)
In the episode Payback, we delve into a compelling narrative where a young woman finds herself at the mercy of a social media scandal. Unveiled by an individual with a substantial social following, she decides to reclaim control over her narrative. Taking matters into her own hands, she orchestrates a live video on his own social media platform, laying bare the injustice she experienced.
This episode sheds light on the tumultuous rollercoaster that individuals endure when exposed and abused online. The profound sense of powerlessness often associated with such abuses is a central theme. Through the lens of revenge, the story explores the complex dynamics at play, showcasing how revenge can become a fleeting but illusory means of regaining control in the face of vulnerability.
