Mother Valley (2023)
La Nuit du verre d’eau
During the turbulent year of 1958, as the winds of revolution swept through the streets of Beirut, three sisters sought refuge in an isolated village nestled in the rugged Lebanese mountains. Among them was Nada, a fiery spirit with a taste for rebellion, Eva, a hopeless romantic lost in her dreams, and Layla, the eldest sister known for her kindness and warmth that endeared her to all who knew her.
As the specter of war loomed over the horizon, the tranquility of their holiday was shattered by the unexpected arrival of two French summer vacationers. Their presence served as a catalyst, stirring something deep within Layla's soul, igniting a fire of defiance against the oppressive patriarchal norms that had long constrained her.
In a bold act of courage, Layla took a stand, challenging the conventions that sought to confine her. Her sisters stood by her side, united in their defiance against the forces that sought to silence them. Together, they faced the uncertainties of an uncertain future, bound by a fierce determination to carve out their own paths in a world determined to keep them shackled by tradition.
