Biography

From the first idea to the final frame: he shapes the concept, builds the story and carries every project through to the screen.

Born in Damascus, Mohammed Al-Mouradi (credited on IMDb as Mohammed Al-Muradi) completed the Cinematic Science and Arts diploma at Syria’s National Film Organization.

In 2018 he wrote, directed and co-shot his debut short documentary, Adam, produced by the National Film Organization’s Youth Cinema Support Project. The film won the Special Jury Award at the Youth Cinema and Short Films Festival and the Bronze Award at Damascus Cinema Days, screened at the Karama Human Rights Film Festival in Jordan and the Festival du Court au Kef in Tunisia, and was distributed in the Arab world by MAD Solutions and streamed on OSN.

In 2022 he directed episodes of Spotlight 15 (Buq’at Daw’), the fifteenth season of the landmark Syrian sketch-comedy series.

Today he directs and produces brand films and documentaries, from storyboard and set build to shoot, edit and colour, including the Zahr Al Bustan brand song and the BioCham documentary.
