Beqaa VR

Beqaa VR is a 7-minute virtual reality (VR) short movie experience loosely inspired by the real-life experience of 7 Estonian cyclists held captive by terrorists in Beqaa Valley in Lebanon for 4 months in 2011. In this psychological short movie, the viewer is put in the shoes (or rather, eyes) of an Estonian hostage, who is held captive in a tool shed together with other hostages and their captors. Unaware of their fate and subject to verbal and physical interrogation, the hostages are plotting their escape. Shall they summon up the courage to go for it? Are they willing to face the consequences should it all go horribly wrong? (Estonian Film Institute)
