Four young women artists in Beirut document the momentous October 2019 uprising against corruption and inflation. They are journalist Hanine, camerawoman Lujain, and Noel and Michelle, two artist sisters whose often-ironic songs have made them a voice for their generation. The prevailing mood is one of hope and change. But a few months later, Covid-19 locks down the city, and all optimism evaporated with the massive explosion at Beirut’s port. Will the young women be able to hold onto their dream of building a new Lebanon?
