I Want To See (Je Veux Voir)

(12A) 75min

Lebanese actor Rabih Mrouse escorts French actress Catherine Deneuve around the shell damaged streets of Beirut and the countryside of southern Lebanon in this semi improvised documentary/guided tour filmed in 2006 after the bombings of that summer. Deneuve talks a load of generalised rubbish and Mrouse grins and bears it as he steers between the rocks, I Want to See. A misguided celebrity indulgence.
