Entièrement photographié en pellicule sur une période de plus de 5 ans, ce livre interroge la perception assez universelle et ambivalente du foyer, des liens et de l’appartenance.
Entirely shot on film over a period of more than 5 years, this book questions the quite universal perception and ambivalent notion of home, ties, and belonging.
It might be that warm and soothing light.
It could be the meals that we share.
Maybe it’s about childhood memories,
and the quiet family house nested in the mountains.
Is it simply because it can’t be somewhere else?
How could one feel safe and relieved
in the very same place that constantly shatters all dreams?
Through war and disillusion, how can Lebanon still be home?
