Summary
After years of trying to make her debut feature and faced with the instability stemming from life in Lebanon, Mounia Akl and her production team are only hours into preproduction when their office is destroyed by the Beirut port explosion of August 4, 2020, injuring them and seemingly shattering all of their plans.
A recipient of the Robert Bosch Film Prize and a grant from the Sundance Institute, Aris‘ documentary follows the filmmakers‘ determination to go ahead with the film and also projects his own feelings doubts, and fears onto the characters documented, blended with his personal experiences of the explosion and its aftermath as well as questioning the relevance and usefulness of his own artistic endeavours.
