Maroun Returns to Beirut is a Lebanese documentary by filmmaker Feyrouz Serhal, produced to mark the thirtieth anniversary of the sudden and tragic death of Maroun Baghdadi — one of Lebanon's most significant directors, whose career spanned documentary and fiction filmmaking from 1973 until his passing in 1993. Serhal embarks on a single-day journey through Beirut, tracing the streets and spaces that profoundly shaped Baghdadi's art and life, meeting people who knew him intimately. As she explores his biography and filmography, the social and political history of Lebanon over the past five decades emerges as the true backdrop. The film is both a tribute to a visionary artist and a meditation on cinema's power to narrate a nation's soul.
