There are a few contenders for Pick of the Week, including the final season of Dark Matter a dark comedy, The Death of Stalin and an Anime release, Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World. The “biggest†new release of the week is Pacific Rim: Uprising, but it is not worth picking up. Summer is the worst time of the year for the home market and this week is no exception. In the end, I rolled a dice and Blockers came out on top. It’s not the only contender, as both Dietrich and von Sternberg in Hollywood: The Criterion Collection and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Set 2: Stardust Crusades Arc are also worthy of that title. The DVD or Blu-ray Combo Pack is a contender for Pick of the Week, thanks in part to the lack of competition. Blockers is the biggest first-run release of the week, and also the best. We are deep into the summer doldrums on the home market.

The film centres around a couple, Ziad and Maryam, who fall under societal pressure to have a baby. The filmmaker tells the story of a group of women and their efforts to ease tensions between Muslim and Christian families in their village. If you like Nadine Labaki’s work, you’ll love this. This 2012 film chronicles its beginnings, its ends, and the several rockets that were launched from the hills of Beirut. Most people aren’t aware that Lebanon ran its very own space program from 1960 to 1966. The film sees a woman hop into a taxi on a quest to find her sister and her son in the wake of Israel’s bombing in 2006. Set in the late 1980s, when the Lebanese conflict was at its peak, one man took advantage of the situation to fake his death. Very Big Shotĭirected by Mir-Jean Bou Chaaya (who is also behind the Netflix series, Jinn), Film Kteer Kbeer as the film was titled in Arabic, sees a Lebanese drug dealer working to sway public opinion with the help of a filmmaker as he attempts to smuggle drugs across borders. With the concept of disability front and centre, the townspeople begin calling Ghadi a demon, all because he utters unintelligible sounds most of the time. Ghadi, a young boy with special needs is at the centre of this 2013 film. The Oscar-nominated film sees first-time actor Zain Al Rafeea play a 12-year old Syrian refugee who sues his parents for neglect while serving a five-year sentence for a violent crime. The list would not be complete without Nadine Labaki’s Capernaum. Instead, he shoots Super 8 films of all the chaos surrounding him. Set in 1975 at the beginning of the civil war, the film follows the story of Tarek, a high school student who is enthralled by the idea of not having to go to school. If there’s one Lebanese film you must watch, West Beirut is it. If you still haven’t dived into the Mediterranean nation’s impressive repertoire of films, we’ve rounded up the best Lebanese films for you to get started. So it goes without saying – Lebanon has undoubtably become a key figure in the global playing field.
