Description

THE INSULT (L'Insulte)
Oscar Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film

A dispute between two men — one Christian, one Palestinian — on the streets of Beirut becomes a national sensation when it opens up old wounds and traumatic memories.

In today's Beirut, an insult blown out of proportions finds Toni, a Lebanese Christian, and Yasser, a Palestinian refugee, in court. From secret
wounds to traumatic revelations, the media circus surrounding the case puts Lebanon through a social explosion, forcing Toni and Yasser
to reconsider their lives and prejudices. Lebanese filmmaker Ziad Doueiri (West Beirut) delves into his country’s contentious history and
offers a sly comment on male pride. (France/Belgium/Cyprus/Lebanon/USA, 2018, 112 min., NR, French/Arabic| Dir. Ziad Doueiri)
