Mohammed Alnaas, the young filmmaker behind the viral short film "A Tale of Two Dinars", tells us about his unbelievable journey that started by shooting a graduation video for his sister, to making one of the most viral and recognized films on the power of boycotting. From teaching himself to edit on an old laptop, to acting in his own films when no actors were available, Alnaas truly embraces the idea that resourcefulness is the mother of creativity.

Alnaas is a Libyan film director, writer, editor, actor and vfx artist who has won numerous awards for his work, has been commissioned by the likes of Watermelon Pictures, and has been invited to speak on the power of storytelling in our lives.
