About This Movie
To Close Your Eyes And See Fire offers a raw, immersive glimpse into post-explosion Beirut. The documentary unfolds slowly, focusing on three compelling characters—each grappling with their trauma while trying to find hope. Aya, the young Syrian refugee, embodies innocence amidst chaos; her story contrasts sharply with Selim's, an activist painter channeling grief into art. The atmosphere is heavy, almost palpable, with the ruins of the city serving as a haunting backdrop. The pacing allows you to sit with each character's struggles, really feel the weight of their experiences. What stands out here is the genuine humanity in each performance—nothing feels staged. It's a reflective piece that stirs deep thoughts about resilience and the human spirit amidst devastation.
