Beirut, My City backdrop

Beirut, My City 1983 Directed by Jocelyne Saab Beyrouth, Ma Ville

In July 1982, the Israeli army besieged Beirut. Four days earlier, Jocelyne Saab sees her house burn and 150 years of family existence go up in smoke. She then takes refuge in questioning: when did this all begin? How did the Beirut people live the siege? Each place will then become a story and each name a memory.
