Capernaum 2018
Capernaum (2018), directed by Nadine Labaki, is a powerful Lebanese drama about Zain, a 12-year-old boy who sues his parents for bringing him into a life of poverty and suffering. The film follows his struggles on the streets of Beirut, where he befriends an undocumented Ethiopian woman and cares for her baby. Through Zain’s journey, the movie exposes issues like child neglect, immigration, and systemic injustice. With raw performances and a heartbreaking narrative, Capernaum is a poignant critique of social inequality, highlighting the resilience of children in desperate circumstances and questioning the responsibilities of parenthood in extreme poverty.
