Talk to Me, is a 2022 Lebanese movie, directed by Ribal Chedid, and starring Fadi Abi Samra. with a runtime of 21 minutes.
Abwab (Talk to Me) is a taut Lebanese drama that unfolds almost entirely within a single room on a single day. Farid, a father who has long lived and worked abroad, spends his last day in Beirut locked inside his son Rawad's bedroom, determined to uncover what the young man has been hiding. A closed door between them becomes the film's central metaphor — a physical barrier that mirrors years of emotional distance, silence, and unspoken resentment. As time passes, the dysfunctional dynamic between father and son intensifies, and buried grievances begin to surface. Intimate, claustrophobic, and emotionally raw, the film is a powerful study of the damage caused by absent fathers and the impossible conversations families put off for too long.
