World Not Ours
A World Not Ours
A World Not Ours is an intimate, humorous portrait of three generations of exile in the refugee camp of Ein el-Helweh, in southern Lebanon. Based on a wealth of personal recordings, family archives, and historical footage, the film is a sensitive and illuminating study of belonging, friendship, and family.
Filmed over more than 20 years by multiple generations of the same family,A World Not Ours is more than just a family portrait; it is an attempt to record what is being forgotten, and mark what should not be erased from collective memory.
Winner of the Berlin Peace Prize, DOC NYC Grand Prix, and Yamagata Grand Prix.
