Publisher Note
How can you feel safe and secure in a place marked by war and disillusionment? Ghaleb Cabbabé explores this question in How Can It Still Be Home?, a highly intimate, emotional, and multilayered documentary about his native Lebanon.
Created over a period of more than five years, his work questions the perception and ambivalent notion of home, ties, and belonging.
“It might be that warm and soothing light.
It could be the meals that we share.
Maybe it’s about childhood memories, and the quiet family house nested in the mountains.
Is it simply because it can’t be somewhere else?
How could one feel safe and relieved in the very same place that constantly shatters all dreams?
Through war and disillusion, how can Lebanon still be home?”
- Ghaleb Cabbabé
