Manar AL HILO graduated from the Cairo Higher Institute for Cinema in 1977. He was always dedicated to uplift the works of his other friends. He worked intheproductionofalltheirfilmsproducedinSudan.His smart wit persuasively found miraculous solutions to overcome production obstacles in a country without production means. He is a radical dreamer who loves cinema but does not cease to question the usefulness of their actions and the moral legitimacy of wanting to talk about cinema in a time of assassins and atrocities.
