Prêt-à-Porter Imm Ali by Dima el-Horr. Lebanon/France, 2001, 25 min, Beta SP US première

When the newly installed neon sign of Imm Ali's ready-to-wear boutique goes out in the middle of the night, speculations abound in the small village of the recently liberated southern tip of Lebanon. Visually eloquent, the film is the first to use the medium of fiction to capture how everyday folks negotiate the quotidian after the withdrawal of the Israeli army and the covert hegemony of Hizbollah. In Arabic with English subtitles.
