Nadine Labaki | Lebanon | France | USA | 2019 | 126’

Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at Cannes, Nadine Labaki’s Capernaum (‘Chaos’) tells the story of Zain, a Lebanese boy who sues his parents for the ‘crime’ of giving him life. The film follows Zain, as he flees his negligent parents and survives through his wits on the streets. Made with a cast of non-professionals playing characters whose lives closely parallel their own. A powerful drama that is as hopeful as it is heart-wrenching.
