@sherifmokbel

It was sure good, esp the colours & scenes...BUT sure make it in arab would have made it better, in my opinion. anyway it is sure a great job.

@modjo4life hi...

thank you for your comments.

Well the story is a Nizar Qabbani's poem actually, what we did is a dramatization of that poem.

As for the English, it was purely based on not being able to find the proper arabic voice over talents in the time frame we had before the deadline.

we hope you enjoyed the English version though :)

@MARYAMLORENA24 Hi Mary,

thank you so much for your comments. We initially planned to do it in Arabic, but we ran out of time in the attempt to find proper Arabic voice overs. So we had to do it in English.

We are working on the arabic version actually. We'll upload it soon hopefully.

I hope you enjoyed the Eglish version though

[MARYAMLORENA24]

I agree, the better is to make it in the original language & put subtitles to make it understandable to others (I dont speak arabic!!) I think many arabs think speaking english make them cooler..but it doesnt!! be proud of yourselves!!!!
