Costa Brava, Lebanon: dir Mounia Akl (2021)

A couple decide to leave the toxic pollution and social unrest of Beirut, hoping to build a utopian existence in the mountains. It’s a strong story, beautifully acted; the result is something of a love letter to Lebanon, a political statement, an environmental reflection, and above all a commentary on society. One of the three features being screened at the Museum of the Future in a short Climate Film Festival, and highly recommended. Free with general admission to the museum (AED 149).
