This intimate film offers a panoramic view of daily life in a Lebanese family through the video diary of the eldest son, Nicolas, between the ages of 15 and 30.
It shows the strong and, at time, dysfunctional relationship that binds Nicolas, his mother, and his sister after his father’s death in 2005. In 2018, Nicolas’ sister Tamara gets married and starts her own family, leaving the single mother face to face with her son. A humorous routine settles in between the two of them, but the camera captures the ever-present fear of predestined loneliness.
This film is part of our program International Queer & Migrant Film Festival.
