Qaseed - The Poem (2016)
The program Opener talks about the Arabic poetry. Back in those days, Qataris were known for their ingenuity in oratory expressions. They were extremely talented in describing their life and emotions. So we came up with the idea of using the Arabic calligraphy letters to form the scenes. The colors are inspired by the Arabian Desert, old manuscripts and the Sidr tree (Lote Tree), an iconic tree found only in Qatar. Sound is composed by the
Arabic Oud instrument.
