A lonely American faces unrequited love on a farm commune in the south of France.

Determined to have her first kiss, a young teenage girl defies her tumultuous world in search of normalcy.

In this astutely played and beautifully shot drama by Isabelle Mecattaf, a look at an anxious day in a wealthy Beirut household becomes a moving rumination on the pain felt by parents of grown children seeking better lives far from home.

August 4, 2020, the port of Beirut explodes. Four years later, Lélia, 17, prepares to leave to study in the United States and has to leave everything behind, her girlfriend, her country, and her family. As an upcoming war looms over their every moment, we spend six days in Beirut with four women caught in the whirlwind of life, between joy and melancholy, traditions and the hope of renewal.
