Entre les courbes

Tripoli, Lebanon, 2021. The great northern city, lively and anarchic, in which Joe, Bilal, Omar, Ahmad and the others try to build themselves as best they can. To feel alive, free; they practice free running on the concrete curves of the international fair, an impressive but forgotten work by the great Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer. Abandoned and in ruins, the site is a reflection of the country. Two worlds rub shoulders, two temporalities mingle and try to get out of it.
