The Beirut Spring Festival, created and launched in 2009 by the Samir Kassir Foundation, is inspired by the title of one of the last articles written by Samir Kassir, shortly before his assassination in 2005.
The Beirut Spring Festival will feature two short movies that were produced and broadcast in the months following Samir Kassir’s assassination, including but not limited to:
– “Tulipe Noire” (video art) by the artist Gretta Nawfal.
– “Monday” by the filmmaker Talal Khoury.
The Beirut Spring Festival will also feature a world premiere: a tribute to Samir Kassir by his own daughter and young filmmaker Liana Kassir, presented for the first time on the occasion of the tenth commemoration.
