What begins as an intimate portrait of Jamal Hindawi – a Palestinian artist doing political theatre in Beirut’s Shatila refugee camp – transforms into a captivating journey. We discover a Lebanon rarely seen, one where hope persists despite hardship, and where community transcends crisis. His story weaves together the profound connection to his Palestinian homeland with an intimate exploration of a country and its people learning to navigate an uncertain present. International Premiere at IDFA
