DIRECTOR STATEMENT
Wars and their survivors have always been my concern. During my childhood, my country was under the gulf war. Then, when I studied filmmaking, I thought about the consequences of war. I found out that war trauma has a long-lasting effect on the mind of people who lose one of their relatives during the war period. The Ring short film is a tribute to all the survivors of war and terrorism in the world.
