Director Statement

A beautiful Dawn is my first experimental narrative short film that was produced with 0 usd budget, All i wanted is to deliver a very simple and basic message about the second chance in life and overcoming our own conflicts through a series of sequential cinematic scenes that work as puzzle which lead to the beautiful new dawn as stated in the film as the second chance.

my long term dream is to be one of the first Tunisians that have an impact in the global film industry.

in this short film i wanted to prove that there is nothing impossible in film-making. if the spirit of making movies is still lighten in yourself, then you can make any movie from literally nothing. i strongly believe that films have been always there as an official language of our global village that connect us global citizens together.
