Loin de Beyrouth

During the war in Beirut, the studio of painter Samir Khaddaje became inaccessible, under the rubble. At the end of the sixteen-year conflict, Samir Khaddaje decided to leave. “Far from Beirut” is a tribute to this angry man who continues his work, far from home, haunted, no doubt, by the memory of images of destruction. Based on photographs of the disaster, real or invented images, “Far from Beirut” is a film without words, about the creative act that appears derisory, but is oh so vital to fight against the forgetting of a war that has already been relegated. to television archives by other conflicts.
