In July 1982, the Israeli army besieged Beirut. Four days earlier, Jocelyne Saab sees her house burn and 150 years of family existence go up in smoke. She then takes refuge in questioning: when did this all begin? How did the Beirut people live the siege? Each place will then become a story and each name a memory.

Beirut, My City
It's terribly tragic we never got the peace we deserve, Each generation has this deep void of witnessing a war when will be freed of this injustice

"nous, en faction sur les lignes de feu, déclarons ce qui suit : 
nous n'abandonnerons pas la tranchée,
tant que durera la nuit."
