Description:
During Lebanon’s civil conflict, a weary taxi driver and a frightened young woman become unlikely allies as they navigate bombed-out Beirut in a race to safety. Their tense journey, rendered with restrained realism, forces them to confront distrust, compassion, and the price of survival amid ruins. The film blends intimate character study with a rough road-movie sensibility, creating a sobering, human portrait of resilience when hope is scarce and danger is constant.
