This happens in, under, through Beirut holes, its floating holes along the stream of some drilled rills in the remaining dust of what is here or what was there for this Beirut filmed in 1995 belongs to the past before downtown has been devastated by the war then rebuilt.
Three invisible girls as spirits hang around in their city that luminous sky enshrouds memories. They walk and talk. Through the stories that plot the sprinkler of the ruins and seem to cry, the machines that eat the rubbles of the grandness and the dust resisting to sweeping, the children who play in the sea that comforts and cleans up against these incarcerating blocks of a future present an destructive; their words assail time and history.
The realistic dreams of a militant youth destroyed by a succession of unreasonable tragedies just take another way, a realistic one.
