BEIRUT 1931

GENRE                       Fiction
IN DEVELOPMENT        

K. arrives in his native Jaffa after the disappearance of M. Like a lurking shadow, M. would only occasionally visit his family home— mostly over weekends—and would sometimes disappear for long periods of time. The visits he pays to hospitals and ministries in search for him prove futile, albeit for the fact that they drive him into a sort of labyrinth inside the Tel Aviv of today. But this is just one illustration of the extent to which the lines between the real and the fictitious are totally blurred. When K. finds a trace of M. in the background of an Israeli fiction film as he accidentally roams the street behind the shooting locale, the haziness between fiction and reality is accentuated further.
