"Cinema in Lebanon" recounts a tumultuous history starting in 1897, the year Alexandre Promio creates the first movie ever filmed in Lebanon for the Lumière Brothers, up until 2015. This bilingual work offers an in-depth exploration of the subject supported by a large iconographic selection, 11 exclusive conversations with key figures of the film industry - directors, producers, actors, cinema operators -
and an extensive filmography.
