Red Chewing Gum, is a 2000 Lebanese movie, directed by Akram Zaatari. with a runtime of 10 minutes.
Red Chewing Gum is an experimental Lebanese film that takes the form of a video letter recounting a story of separation between two men. Set against the backdrop of Hamra, a once-bustling commercial district in Beirut now transformed by years of change, the film uses the act of recording itself as its central subject. It examines how video and image-making relate to desire, power, consumption, and age — drawing a parallel between one character's obsessive attempt to capture fleeting time on camera and the very human need to possess what inevitably slips away.
