Synopsis

A poignant look into the lives of Beirut is intimately affected by the explosion; the fire- fighting battalion who lost most it’s members; renowned actors grappling with the devastation as they attempt to help their fellow citizens.

Their musings, aspirations for the future and the gnawing fear that this may happen again.
