i've read the movie as a metaphor of Beirut. how it lives with the souvenirs of its old sunny days. the characters are very authentic, the acting is simple, the idea is interesting: how a man lives his loneliness, between was is true and what is from his pure imagination. Julia Kassar is very impressive by her acting. not to forget to mention the rhythm and how the movie "plays" on 2 different level of time " the past and the present". it made the invisible become visible! by it simple 3 characters it gave an idea of the life in Beirut, the routine, the dreams, the future(s), the souvenir. hope that with this movie the Lebanese cinema will start to rise. the Lebanese cinema needs this kind of authentic movies.
