Vatche Boulghourjian : 2016

Rabih, a young blind man, lives in a small village in Lebanon. His life unravels when he applies for a passport and discovers that his identification card is a forgery. Travelling across rural Lebanon in search of a record of his own birth, he meets people on the far fringes of society who tell their own stories, open further questions and give him minor clues about his identity. He encounters a nation incapable of telling his, or its own, history. Vatche Boulghourjian's feature debut premiered in competition at the Semaine de la Critique at Festival de Cannes 2016.
