Omar began to build a movie theatre above his home, all by himself and without telling anyone. It took him four years. He opened the cinema with a projector from 1928, got the seats from the old village cinema and set up the screen painting a canvas that his wife helped him hang. This room became his refuge. After ten years of trying to keep it running, his brothers decided to sell the land where Omar`s house and theatre were. He had to move. Omar did not give up and started again, slowly and quietly.
