TREE OF HELL - Directed by Raed Zeno

Raed discovers by chance that the beautiful tree growing in front of his house is one of the invasive trees that threatens the environmental diversity in the Lebanese forest.

THE EARTH WEAVERS - Directed by Rima Kaddissi

Rima celebrates the collective journey back to the land. It’s a testament to the transformative power of communal care, where women come together to reclaim their ancestral knowledge, language, culture, and land.
