This documentary gathers the testimonies of Lebanese expatriates living in Paris. Feelings of relief, independence and Christian/Muslim unity overtake the Lebanese community. It is a moment to reflect on the possibility of returning home after so many years of adjusting to the Parisian way of life but also a moment of uncertainty: a series of explosions have rocked the country since the beginning of the demonstrations. Gebran Tueni, a respected politician and journalist, has come to Paris to give a passionate speech. These are some of the last images of one of the founding fathers of the movement who was assassinated just a few months later in a car explosion, on the 12th of December 2005.
