About the work
This video questions the mobility of the Arameans in the Lebanese social context, through the example of a woman who suffered one of the explosions in Beirut. Are the Arameans, who keep their language and their religion, pursued again by terrorism in Lebanon?
KeywordsVideo. Politics. Religion. Mobility.
