The Khayrallah Center and the Triangle Lebanese-American Center will host a screening of We Never Left.

Saying goodbye to loved ones at the Beirut airport has become an unfortunate tradition in Lebanon, almost a curse. Lebanese emigrants, driven abroad by decades of turmoil, are more than double those still left in their homeland. After civil protests erupted in Lebanon on Oct. 17, 2019, cameras followed three young Lebanese expats as they took part in the Lebanese revolution from New York, fighting for a better country, each protesting in their own way. As they went through their collective journey, they individually confronted both their relationship with their homeland and their own complicated identities. This is the story of the Lebanese people and revolutions, both political and personal.

The screening will include a reception and discussion about the documentary with Loulwa Khoury, the documentary's director.
