- Summary:
- We follow the lives of four members of the Lebanese Christian elite. In one of the world's most politically unstable countries, they are a symbol of the former Switzerland of the Middle East - the last representatives of a golden age they are reluctant to give up.They have overcome their fears for the future and live life to the fullest, as if nothing had changed. They live in a bittersweet oasis, a mix of an intense social life with the extravagance of bygone times. Through an elegant mise-en-scène, we witness the end of an era and a way of life whose days are numbered.
