And the Fish Fly Above Our Heads

والأسماك تطير فوق رؤوسنا

Dima El-Horr

Time goes by and Lebanon continues to sink. Between past and present, sleep and wakefulness, dreams and reality, Réda, Adel, and Qassem just wait by the sea—not for a miracle to come and rescue them, but for the whole country to be wrecked.

يمر الوقت، ويواصل لبنان الغرق. بين الماضي والحاضر، بين النوم واليقظة، بين الحلم والواقع، رضا، عادل وقاسم على شاطئ البحر، لا ينتظرون معجزة تنقذهم، بل انهيار البلد بأكمله.
