Where Do We Go Now?
Christians and Muslims lived peacefully together for years in this small Lebanese village, but animosities begin to build among the men as a result of slights and misunderstandings. The women of the village conspire to avert sectarian strife though a series of harebrained plans. It's an approachable film that handles a serious topic deftly and offers a fresh take on a familiar subject.
