Grades 10-Adult
A film by Mai Masri and Jean Chamoun for BBC Television
A courageous documentary from Lebanon about the effects of 16
years of civil war on what was once the intellectual, cultural
and commercial center of the Arab world. The film tells the
story of four Beirut citizens from very different backgrounds
as they struggle to reconstruct their homes and lives amid the
chaos, the broken buildings, and the unexploded mines of their
once beautiful city. The film assesses the appalling impact of
modern warfare on the environment, and looks ahead to a new
conflict in the making over the Middle East's most precious
commodity -- water.
