Stills
Le jour de son mariage, Lamia, une jeune fille de 16 ans, traverse les rangées de barbelés qui séparent son village de celui de son futur époux, son cousin Samy. Le village de Lamia est libanais, celui de Samy, annexé par Israel. Entre les deux, seul un passage est ouvert, sous contrôle et exclusivement réservé aux cortèges de mariages ou d'enterrements. Lamia rejoint sa belle famille, abandonne son petit frère, son école, son cerf volant, sa mère et son passé. Elle se refuse à son mari et tombe peu à peu amoureuse du soldat qui, depuis le premier jour, la surveille du haut de son mirador.
The day of her wedding, Lamia, a 16-year-old girl, crosses the rows of barbed wire that separate her village from the village of her future husband, her cousin Samy. Lamia's village is Lebanese, Samy's has been annexed by Israel. Between them, a single passage remains, under tight control and reserved exclusively for wedding and funeral processions. Lamia joins her family in law, abandoning her younger brother, her school, her kite, her mother, and her past. She refuses her husband's call to bed, and gradually falls in love with the border guard who, from the first day, has been monitoring her from his watchtower.
