Beirut lies in ruins. After the explosion in the city’s port, collective trauma rises to the surface. The film carefully observes the following three years and zooms in on the lives of Aya, a Syrian refugee girl, Selim, an activist and painter, the Aladdin family, mourning a tragic loss, Yasmin, picking up calls at a suicide prevention hotline, and Andrea – who still believes in the city’s spark for change. Meanwhile, a smoldering fire lingers in the port’s silos like a cautionary tale.
