Movie screening
The Fourth Wall

A film by David Oelhoffen

Lebanon, 1982. To keep a promise made to an old friend, Georges travels to Beirut for a project that is as utopian as it is risky: to stage Antigone in order to steal a moment of peace in the midst of a fratricidal conflict. The characters will be played by actors from different political and religious camps. Lost in a city and a conflict he doesn’t know, Georges is guided by Marwan. But the resumption of fighting soon calls everything into question, and Georges, who falls in love with Imane, will have to face the reality of war.

The screening will be followed by a discussion with David Oelhoffen, director
