Overview

Carona is a Lebanese comedy film that follows an upper-class family forced to abandon their luxurious city apartment after neighbors test positive for COVID-19. Their refuge is an old, crumbling house in a remote village — a place without electricity or internet, far removed from their pampered urban lifestyle. As disorder gives way to unexpected discovery, the family members begin to reconnect with their roots and a forgotten identity buried beneath years of modern comfort. The film uses the pandemic's chaos as a backdrop for a warmly satirical story about heritage, belonging, and what gets lost when we lose touch with where we come from.
