Grey Glow ()

Directed by Michèle Tyan

Fifty-five-year-old Nayla is a supervisor at a factory in a Beirut suburb, and struggles to ensure her family’s survival. The war in the south of the country threatens to spill over at any moment, in a country plagued by an economic collapse. Her unemployed, alcoholic husband Mounir, an ex-Civil War militiaman, spends his time watching television. The couple’s feeling of unease fluctuates between aggression and guilt. One night, their twenty-three-year-old daughter Rania knocks over a man while driving home. Nayla is caught up in a vicious circle: She finds herself with Rania, in hospital, facing a family from “the other side.” Animosity and curiosity alternate. For the first time in a long while, Nayla does some deep soul-searching. Her relationship with her husband worsens. But the injured man's condition suddenly deteriorates and he dies. Rania is taken to prison.
