IT'S ALL IN LEBANON / WISSAM CHARAF
Very few films manage to bring home the schizophrenic realities of today’s Lebanon, a country of extremes. One half is the Paris of the Middle East and the playground of the Arab world, while the other defines itself by its seemingly endless war against Israel. This film is a courageous, provocative attempt to bring it all together through the “war of the video clips” on opposing parties’ TV channels. A revealing journey through modern Lebanon, a country torn between violence, lust and amnesia.
