ذكرى و ورد: Short Movies

These two short movies are part of my cousin Nadia's graduation project. I just loved them and thought they are worth sharing.

 
 
 

ماذا لو كان الورد أخضر؟

ورد... فيلم فيديو يعرض تجارب لأطفال مكفوفين عند تلمسهم لأوراق ورد و إدراكهم الحسي و ربما البصري للّون والمادة 

What if roses were green?

Ward (Roses) is a short movie featuring the experience of blind kids feeling rose petals, and their tactile, possibly visual, perception of colors and objects.
 
 

إن لم تكن الذكرى صوراً، فماذا تكون؟

ذكرى فيلم فيديو يعرض تجارب لشباب مكفوفين، تمثل إحساسهم بالمكان و حديثهم عن ذكرياتهم الخاصة و الأكثر حضوراً في أذهانهم. 
 

If memories were not pictures, what would it be?

Thekra (Memories) is a short movie featuring the experience of blind people, representing their sense of place by talking about their most cherished memories.

You really brought tears to my eyes watching those kids ....
The bliss we live in and we don't even realize ...
May god bless their hearts ... and bless you for sharing ...
It's sooooooo touching, and got me so emotional over it. :'(
Thanks Ola... sometimes we need that kick in the jaw to remember all the blessings

أول شيء الحمد لله على النعم الي نحن فيها و مو حاسين بقيمتها.

رغم انو التقطيع نغص علي المشاهدة لكن تأثيره وصل و فعلا رائع اننا نتزكرهم و نهتم بيهم..

الله يزيدهم أمل و راحة و تفائل و حب

شكرا علا,

Mashallah, excellent work. The production and visuals were amazing, the content very powerful. Those little kids are mashallah very cute, damhom 5afeeeef :D especially when he gives up trying to be philosophical and just says '2o shoo bi3arifnee shoo howwa al-2a7mar' :D
