In the Battlefields

In the midst of Beirut's chaos, a young girl named Lina forges an unexpected friendship with her aunt's stern maid, Sihan, who introduces her to a new way of living and challenges her to her limits as they concoct a daring plan to flee the city.

In 1982 Beirut, 12-year-old Lina's life revolves around her 18-year-old aunt's Syrian maid, Siam. Lina decides to take care of Siam, helping with romantic trysts and defending her interests, but remains invisible to Siam and her own family, including her reckless and gambling-addicted father. Amidst war, passion, and frustration, Lina tries to connect with the adult world, but remains untamed.
