- SYNOPSIS:
"Nabil, an ambitious engineer, has a totalitarian project to transform the city of Beirut.
He wants to destroy everything in order to rebuild it, doing so by implanting vitalist AI bombs into human bodies.
But things don’t go as planned when he crosses paths with Sana…"

STATEMENT:
"This film explores the psychological ruins left by war — a descent into the fragmented minds of individuals haunted by violence and obsessed with destruction. In Lebanon, where cycles of collapse and conflict seem endless, violence is not only a social reality but a metaphysical presence, inscribed into the body and spirit.
Through a minimalist narrative and a raw, sensory approach to image and sound, I wanted to blur the line between reality and hallucination. The characters drift in a waking nightmare, where logic collapses and instinct takes over.
Stylistically, the film lies at the crossroads of nihilistic thriller, dystopian science fiction and neo-noir. I was drawn to a dark, hypnotic atmosphere — something organic and tense, more felt than told.
This is a film about inner breakdowns, societal erosion, and the ghosts that remain when everything falls apart."

Born in Beirut in 1979, he completed his Cinema Studies at Université Paris III - Sorbonne Nouvelle (France) and through a joint program at The University of Iowa (USA).
