Maulana Latif Hanafi is a young director from Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta, currently 16 years old. He is a student at SMKN 1 Wonosari and an aspiring filmmaker. His filmmaking journey began at the age of 12 with his first project, "Ojo Bolos Sekolah". Since then, he has focused on deepening his involvement in filmmaking. He has directed several films, including "Lho?", "Atirath", and "Rasulan."
