A quintet is an omnibus feature told from the perspective of five international up and coming filmmakers who are searching to find identity in the modern world. The five segments are : "Polaroid" by Roberto Cuzzillo; "Friend Request" by Elie Lamah; "The Cuddle Workshop" by Mauro Mueller; "The House in the Envelope" by Sanela Salketic; and "The Tourist" by Ariel Shaban.

The film gives voice to Lebanese teenagers, filmed in different regions of the country - Tripoli, Sidon, Hermel... Coming from different backgrounds, they express themselves on the future, their future, their desires and fears, on their role models, their link to family, politics, memories. They talk with the frankness and funniness of children and yet, also with the maturity of adults. Through a series of simple and open questions, the documentary draws an intimate portrait of today's Lebanese youth.

Strange and life-threatening events in a construction site create tension between the Syrian workers and the Lebanese villagers. Tarek, one of the workers, becomes convinced that the site is haunted.

A Certain Nasser is the compelling journey of ninety years old Lebanese filmmaker, Georges Nasser, an idealist who couldn't adapt to his country's failing system but whose eyes still light up at the mention of his greatest love, Cinema.

It's dark. It's raining. The streets are empty. A hit man is on his way to Basin Street. Nothing will go as expected.
