In his childhood, Tammuz watched a film about the life of a young boy, and through it he was surprised at how much cinema can convey human lives and their details: “There is someone far away who lives just like me!” Since that time, he became fond of films, and their heroes became friends with whom he lived. In his youth, he traveled to Dubai, to collect money and realize his dream of studying cinema, but he became immersed in the worlds of sex and money and moved away from his dream, until the revolution and then the war broke out in Syria, when he woke up from his nightmare and realized that hundreds of films were waiting for him in his homeland to wake them from their slumber.
