Shatila Roundabout

Rond-point Chatila

“Shatila Round-about”

A drawing on a blackboard serves as an introduction to the complexity of Lebanon’s past; more and more arrows and directions fill the board, thus featuring the Chatila camp in the outskirts of Beirut, a site that welcomes the Palestinian refugees who are now the scapegoats of Lebanese society. With respect and accuracy, the filmmaker reveals the day-to-day life of this microcosm.
