"“All these talks between Christians and Muslims are nonsense. I love my city, and they can threaten us as much as they want. I will stay, even if they strike me.” We filmed Rami, a resident of Tyre’s Christian quarter, last week, just before the announcement of the US-Iran deal. Despite Israeli threats against the area, he had decided to stay. Heartwarming words in a country too often seen through the lens of sectarian divisions. I hope the ceasefire holds, and that Rami, along with all the residents of southern Lebanon, can finally live in peace." - Source
