BEIRUT OPEN CITY /
DOUKHAN BILA NAR

US PREMIERE
An American flag flies at the head of five identical jeeps heading straight for the city of Beirut. A man sits on the rear brandishing a heavy machine gun. Khaled's camera captures this moment, and many moments after that, and thus the stories of fear, violence, repression and corruption begin. A feature action-drama set at the height of the Syrian presence in Lebanon and an insight into Beirut's underbelly. By Samir Habchi, Lebanon/Egypt, 100min, thriller, 2008, in Arabic with English subtitles.
