So, 'Father of Rami' is this intriguing little film from 2012 that takes you on a raw, emotional journey through Lebanon's roads.

The atmosphere is heavy with tension as they drive, and you can feel the weight of their unresolved issues. The car breaking down serves as a pivotal moment – it’s not just about the car but their relationship too.
