Lebanon, August 2020. The explosion in the Beirut harbor compels Yasmeen and her father to face the unspoken truths of their past. A search for reconstruction that will redefine their relation to violence and to the troubled history of their country.
Director
Joachim Michaux was born in France in 1988. Before switching focus to his own creative ideas, he worked for several years in the film industry. Joachim developed his practice by directing short documentary essays, with a self-taught approach at first before benefiting from a subvention that allowed him to make his film The American, selected in several international festivals. He was then admitted to Le Fresnoy, where he is currently sharpening his practice.
