Éric Baudelaire
2013 - France - Couleur - 101'
Winter, Beirut. On a littered beach, Lili and Michel meet. Or perhaps they know each other from before... As they struggle to piece together the fragments of an uncertain past, memories emerge: an act of terrorism, an explosion and the disappearance of a child, Elena. Woven throughout these fragments is the deep voice of a Japanese narrator who recounts his own experience of a weeping Beirut, and his twenty-seven clandestine years fighting alongside the Palestinians as a member of the Japanese Red Army.
