Lebanon in the UK: Diaspora Shorts was a programme of short films by 5 (women) Lebanese filmmakers based in the UK, part of our season: New Lebanese Cinema: Reclaiming Storytelling. The season is focused on contemporary filmmaking in Lebanon which sees a new generation of directors telling authentic stories of life on the ground, eschewing as much as possible some of the constraints of European financing bodies and co-productions. 

The five filmmakers discuss filmmaking in Lebanon today and what it means to be part of the diaspora. The films discussed are: 

Neo Nahda, dir. by May Ziade

A Tempo the 3rd Act, dir. by Maria Abdel Karim

The Sun Sets on Beirut, dir. by Daniela Stephan

Three Centimeters, dir. by Lara Zeidan

Submarine, dir. by Mounia Akl
