Ashes, is a 2003 Lebanese movie. with a runtime of 26 minutes.
Ashes is a Lebanese drama centered on grief, ritual, and the tension between personal mourning and family obligation. When Nabil returns to Beirut carrying his father's ashes after the old man dies abroad, he finds himself caught between his own quiet bereavement and his family's insistence on observing traditional burial rites — rites that require a body that doesn't exist. The film is an intimate portrait of a son navigating impossible expectations while trying to grieve on his own terms. Set against the backdrop of Beirut, Ashes gently explores how Lebanese society grapples with death, custom, and the meaning of home.
