Brief description: 

A 14 minute documentary film in Arabic, consisting of interviews with former militia leaders during the Lebanese civil war (one from the Lebanese Forces, a ‘Christian’ militia, and the other from Murabitun, a ‘Muslim’ militia). Those two men present an vital example, as after the war came to an end, they re-read their experience and started doing everything possible to make up for it. The first thing was a personal repentance, then a public apology, followed by public testimonies focusing on the need to go from aggressiveness to reconciliation among Lebanese.
