When three young filmmakers set out to make a documentary about a French industrialist, accused of murdering his family, they are confronted by supernatural forces engaged in a war for the very soul of the land.
Set in present-day Lebanon, What Is Buried Must Remain is a modern ghost story with ancient roots and a phenomenal production context: made during a global pandemic and the economic collapse of Lebanon, and most scenes taking place around the refugee camps the young cast and crew calls home.
What Is Buried Must Remain also screens in the online part of Abertoir 2022.
