Quiet, sharp, and darkly ironic, the documentary follows a group of children attempting to sing the national anthem as war rumbles around them. Between innocence and destruction, Baghdadi captures a nation still searching for itself- and for hope- in the war-torn South.  The restored copy reveals footage of the landscape, of villagers working the land, of mass funerals, and interviews with farmers, fighters and mothers mourning their dead children. The music is composed by the legendary Lebanese musician Marcel Khalife and the film is produced by the lebanese national movement. 

????????'? ???: Maroun Baghdadi's work looks closely at everyday life during the civil war, capturing the fragmentation, tenderness and uncertainty of a country in transition. Beirut Ya Beirut was described by ArteEast as “perhaps the first real masterpiece of Lebanese cinema,” and Little Wars premiered in the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, introducing his work internationally. He later collaborated with Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese, and in 1991, his feature Out of Life (Hors la Vie) received the Cannes Jury Prize - affirming his place in the history of Arab cinema. Throughout his career, he directed eight feature films, thirteen documentaries, numerous shorts and video works: a life of filmmaking compressed into too few years.
