Karin Albou is a very distinct director, one of the ways to distinguish her is the themes in her films. Knowing Karin’s heritage explains some of the themes she chooses to cover. Raised in the Jewish faith, Karin's films explore the lasting trauma of the Holocaust – French colonialism, secret identity, exile, assimilation, and double diaspora. Karin explores and challenges the rules of religion and marriages. Karin directs My Shortest Love Affair with themes of love, sex and family values. Her themes involve bringing intimate scenes of female spaces, tackling sexual dysfunction in marriage and uncovering how culture impacts the idea of romance. Karin keeps these themes consistent in her films and portrays them with her unique film style. Her style focuses on the representation of women. In The Wedding Song, the film style displays a lesbian, female, and Orientalist gaze. Short film  Feature  The Wedding Song was nominated for 6 awards at the 10th edition of the International Images Film Festival, Harare   "École Supérieure De Réalisation Audiovisuelle." Wikipedia.
