Overview

In The Quiet After, AL. HILAL traces the long arc between two homelands-Baghdad and North Idaho-and the river of silence that runs between them. What begins in a city shaped by war and memory unfolds into a life rebuilt in the sharp, winter light of the American Northwest. Through scenes of exile, fatherhood, and quiet reckonings, Hilal explores what follows catastrophe: the pain of leaving, the fragile hope of arrival, and the unexpected beauty that emerges in the spaces where grief finally lets the soul breathe. Both intimate and expansive, these true stories move with the precision of a painter's hand-fragmented, layered, and luminous. Hilal shows that healing is rarely loud; it happens in the small hours, in the soft blue after the storm, in the quiet we spend a lifetime learning to hear. The Quiet After is a testament to endurance, belonging, and the artistry of carrying two worlds without letting either one break you.
