"Disorientation is quite normal: Welcome to Lebanon." -- Film essay by Lana Daher. Now at the Tilsiter Lichtspiele cinema.
A playful and personal journey through the audiovisual memory of Lebanon, consisting entirely of archive material. It is a love letter to Beirut, spanning 70 years of film, television, home movies and photography, exploring the collective psyche of the Lebanese, characterized by joy and intimacy, destruction and loss.
Through the eyes of citizens, filmmakers and artists, the film reconstructs a fragmented history in a country without a national archive and celebrates creative expression as resistance, renewal and a way to preserve memories. It draws on over 100 works of independent Lebanese cinema as well as countless home movies, photos, podcasts, music and other media.
