Bereket Yowhannes

Bereket Yohannes is credited with directing this founding film. No dates and no other film are known for him. They link this film to the community of amateur filmmakers born during the conflicts of the 1990s, from which an abundant production in Tigrinya later emerged, shown in cinemas in Asmara almost every week. The Mail & Guardian also associates with the film a cinematographer from Italy, who directed the shoot.
