DO YOU LOVE ME is a playful and personal journey through Lebanon’s audiovisual memory, composed entirely of archival footage. It is a love letter to Beirut, spanning 70 years of film, television, home videos, and photography, and exploring the collective psyche of the Lebanese people—a psyche marked by joy and intimacy, destruction and loss. Through the eyes of citizens, filmmakers, and artists, the film reconstructs a fragmented history in a country without a national archive and celebrates creative expression as a form of resistance, renewal, and a means of preserving memories. It draws on over 100 works of independent Lebanese cinema as well as countless home videos, photos, podcasts, music, and other media.
