RAMALLAH, West Bank — Amid buildings teetering on the brink of collapse under a sky torn by snipers, Palestinian filmmaker Mai Masri walks with her husband, the Lebanese director Jean Chamoun, to document the destruction of the 1982 Lebanon War. The couple’s walk, with both carrying cameras, is one of the memorable scenes in a 27-minute portrait of Chamoun.
The documentary about about the cinematic and personal journey of Chamoun and Masri was screened for the first time at a commemorative festival in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Aug. 28, a year after Chamoun’s death on Aug. 10, 2017.
