One of These Days

It’s a sunny autumn day in Beirut and we’re following three young people, Maya, Yasmina and Tarek, as they live their lives amidst a rumbling backdrop of civil unrest, terrorism, war and weapons. Yet, like young kids the world over, their minds are more preoccupied with staving off boredom and negotiating the delicate politics of seduction and romance. Over 24 hours, we follow the trio as they navigate the beautiful, damaged, traumatized, electric city they call home. (Dubai International Film Festival)
