DOCNZ 2007: Lebanon - A Summer Not to Forget

DOCNZ 2007: Lebanon - A Summer Not to Forget

In every war, there are two sides to every story. Which is right? Which is not? Whatever the answer, the undeniable truth lies within the human casualty and devastation.

In July 2006, Hezbollah captured 2 Israeli soldiers and Israel reciprocated with 34 days of continuous Israeli bombardment.

Using powerful and disturbing images, the film tells a story of yet another war on Lebanon: 1,200 killed, 4,000 injured, one million displaced, 78 bridges destroyed, 15,000 homes damaged, 15,000 tonnes of oil spilled on 80km of the Mediterranean coastline, 57 collective massacres and much more.

Director Mansour takes you into the harsh realities of a nation devastated by war and a people caught under siege.
