Captions and Audio Description available
Maia, a single mother, lives in Montreal with her teenage daughter, Alex. On Christmas Eve, they receive an unexpected delivery: notebooks, tapes and photos Maia sent to her best friend from 1980s Beirut. Maia refuses to open the box or confront its memories, but Alex secretly begins diving into it.
Between fantasy and reality, Alex enters the world of her mother’s tumultuous, passionate adolescence during the Lebanese civil war, unlocking mysteries of a hidden past.
