Tadur is a pastoral escapade. It depicts an imaginary world deep in Mount Lebanon, where criminals, impoverished farmers, and monastic sages are immersed in both beauty and brutality. The Arabic word "tadur" encapsulates the essence of this world, meaning to spin, orbit, turn, revolve, rotate, cycle, or circle.

It’s moving day. Sahar and Omar are new in town. When Sahar runs down to the local supermarket to grab some first-night essentials, the owner of the store leaves her in an uncomfortable situation. She returns to the apartment where her and Omar’s stagnant relationship leaves them speechless. Later, when Omar visits an old friend, we slowly unravel what undying love entails and how it can be threatened by routine and monotony.
