3. Small Lives of a White Chair

In the streets of Beirut, the humble white plastic chair is everywhere. In front of shops, tucked into alleyways, sitting quietly at the edge of a sidewalk. It witnesses the ordinary: smoke breaks, neighborhood chats, shared silences.
So common, we hardly notice it anymore. Yet it tells a story of local life, improvised hospitality, stillness, and waiting.

This video takes a step back to focus on its quiet presence, still and steady amid a chaotic city.
An ode to suspended moments. To humble objects. To the small lives of a white chair.
