Overview

Raddem is a Lebanese drama film set against the backdrop of post-war Beirut, a city simultaneously scarred by conflict and caught in the throes of reconstruction. The story follows a young woman on a haunting search through the city's rebuilding streets for a man who once photographed her home — a home she has never known as anything but rubble. With intimate and meditative pacing, Raddem explores how memory, place, and identity intersect in a fractured urban landscape, asking what it means to belong to a home that exists only in photographs. The film captures Beirut's layered trauma with quiet emotional power, making it a standout entry in Lebanese arthouse cinema.
