Bearing witness, frame by frame

Filmmaker & storyteller

I am Omar Saleh.I make films about memory, pressure, and the people history would rather forget.

Portrait of filmmaker Omar Saleh

I work across filmmaking, screenwriting, photography, video editing, and graphic design.I treat every frame as a place where story, rhythm, light, and memory meet.
