Lebanon on the Verge of War (Documentary 2011)

Produced and directed for Al Arabiya

113 political parties, 18 recognized sects, 17 years of civil war and relentless internal strife have shaped Lebanon and the Lebanese. This is a country where everyone has something to say about politics, whether on TV, in the taxi, at a shop, on a street, in schools, universities, weddings, and even funerals. In this two-hour documentary, we explore the difficult question of what would make the best system for governing Lebanon. We take to the field and listen to several suggestions from different voices and parts of Lebanon’s mosaic like society.
