These attempts of Nasser lead to a revolution in Lebanon in 1958, and the killings and marginalizing of certain political sides opposing Nasser and his &#8220;pan-Arab&#8221; unclear plans, including some of my paternal family members. There were assasinations, leading for internal displacement inside Lebanon, and to surprising consequences of unexpected acts.<\/p><p>In this video, each chapter is introduced by a written and hand-sketched sentence that seperates each chapter and that reads:\u00a0 &#8220;This video could have started like this&#8221;, to introduce a new rolling fragment filmed between 2003 and 2016 with a number of relevant family member each time, from my Syrian maternal side as well as from my Lebanese paternal side, including my Syrian grandmother who passed-away in her nineties, myself 20 years ago, my ten years&#8217;
