Director Statement

movie (The Burial)
It is a short Jordanian film that was produced this year and participated in the Jordan International Film Festival.
He won Best Actor...
Film duration (10:58)
It addresses the issues of get-rich-quick in an innovative and experimental way...
The style of directing is based on symbolic and surreal realism in drawing scenes...
The movie is one actor, and it is a silent movie. We only hear the voice of the actor's laughter and screams and the sounds of drilling tools...
It relies on sound effects rather than dialogue...
