What would life feel like without fear and oppression? Is it
possible to find solace in the power of chosen family, underground
art collectives, and ultimately revolution?Set in Beirut, Lebanon,
a city once known to be a vibrant cultural center of the region.
It's 30 years after the end of the civil war, and a few months
before the disastrous explosion of August 2020. Samar, a young
queer comic book artist, wanders between anguished dreams,
childhood memories, romantic experiences, and Beirut’s
alternative communities. This abstractly autobiographical story
tells of the author's anxiety over living in a complex city of
changing colors and moods. Three powerful themes: art, sex, and
political uprising, are interwoven in a compelling narrative and an
otherworldly color palette.
