TRIPOLI / A TALE OF THREE CITIES
World premiere: IDFA 2024 / Frontlight
A queer director returns to Tripoli, Lebanon to confront a hometown that once rejected him. He interviews the city's inhabitants about their cultural and social beliefs and their embrace of new ideas. This contemplative urban symphony paints a picture of a city trapped in a self-spun web, paralyzed by a deep economic crisis, a faltering revolution, and a looming doomsday.
