Beneath Lebanon’s tranquil gardens, schools, cafes, and hotels lie over 100 untouched mass graves from the Civil War, each hiding the remains of thousands still waiting to be mourned. ‘The Soil and the Sea’ unearths the silent violence beneath these ordinary landscapes, letting the voices of the past fill the spaces once forgotten.
