Documentaries by Carol Mansour, Soraya Umewaka, Sarah Kaskas, Paul Cochrane and Karim Eid-Sabbagh, Carmen Labaki as well as shorts by Zayn Alexander, Sabina Botros, Karim Kassem, and Ghada Youssef.
The series is presented in collaboration with the Cohen Media Group, The Hagop Kevorkian Center at NYU, Nadi Lekol el Nas, IndiePix, SparqFest.Live.
SR Film Festival Founder and Artistic Director Nora Armani said,
"This series focuses on memory and identity in Lebanese cinema to mark the first anniversary of the terrible explosion that shook Beirut. The shattered pieces are those of a rich cultural heritage and represent far more than the irreparable human and material losses."
LAU NY Executive Director Nadim Shehadi said,
"We are thrilled about LAU NY's third and closest collaboration with Nora Armani and the Socially Relevant Film Festival. LAU's performing arts programs are the oldest in the Middle East and LAU NY is a bridge between Beirut and New York. Right now, it's so important to celebrate Lebanese creativity and so much incredible filmmaking coming out of Lebanon today and over the past generation."
