A Sad and Beautiful World - EN subs

Set in Beirut, this romantic comedy/drama captures the bittersweet reunion of childhood sweethearts Yasmina and Nino, whose youthful love was severed by war and rekindled years later amid a country on the brink. Yasmina longs to move abroad, while Nino is attached to the city and his beloved bistro.
