Hard Days
This film is one of the outputs of a storytelling and drawing workshop to teach Sudanese children in Cairo to make animated films to express their ideas, dreams, and vision of their world and what surrounds them.
The film's story tells about the Corona pandemic and its impact on human relationships with pets living on the street and how these animals lived their lives in those days.
The workshop was implemented with the support of the Al-Noon Foundation for Family Care and the Gang Academy for Knowledge, Training and Consultation.
