Beirut country club
In a posh country club located in the southern suburbs of Beirut, the story of a love triangle between Amal Tawil, a 30-year-old middle-class woman, Said Itani, a tennis teacher, and Lea Farés, an 18-year-old teenager who is none other than Amal's future sister-in-law. Like a premonitory sign, the birth of this love triangle takes place the day when, in the club, the bones of Palestinian fighters who died during the civil war are dug up. The resurgence of the violence of the past will contaminate the three protagonists who will each upset their moral codes as this love triangle progresses. Soon, the only solution to regain balance will have to involve the murder of one of them.
