Once there was a forest then the forest became a city and then the remains became a park Pine nuts´ is set in a Park in Beirut that nearly 20 years after the end of the civil strife still hasn’t officially reopened its gates to the public. Some says that the new pine trees that were planted there in the nineties still have to grow themselves mature before the park actually can reopen. The film investigates this myth through the tales and memories of Immigrants stories of the Lebanese Diaspora removed from the actual site. The desires for the missed opportunity for the life under the crown of the ‘umbrella’ Pine Tree play into with the imagination of the viewer to fill out the picture.
