Leighton House Museum Presents:

HERE COMES THE RAIN

Lebanon, 2010, 100 mins, Director: Bahij Hojeij

Hojeij's second feature centres on a sensitive political issue; the story of Lebanon's missing ten thousand people almost two decades after the ending of the civil war in 1991. The film tells the story of three women. A mother whose child was ‘disappeared' without a trace, a wife whose life is thrown into turmoil when her abducted husband suddenly re-appears and the story of a woman who lives with the ghost of her husband.

Curated by Ziad Khatlan. Ziad Khatlan is a film critic, author and film festival jurist. He was a jury member for the Gulf Film Festival (2009); Chief Programmer for the Dubai International Film Festival (2005); and a Senior Editor of Al-Quds Online (2008–2010).
