Additional Information / Shotlist Lina JOUNI
Patient displaced from Roumine

1
00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:04,180
To reach a point of such
anger and sadness

2
00:00:04,180 --> 00:00:05,700
that you are unable
to express yourself

3
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:07,020
is very exhausting.

4
00:00:07,020 --> 00:00:09,180
Nothing holds any value anymore

5
00:00:09,180 --> 00:00:11,180
and you feel nothing.

Despite the ceasefire, many communities in southern Lebanon continue to live with fear, loss, and uncertainty.

Abdallah Al Khaled
Patient displaced from Ain Arab

6
00:00:17,380 --> 00:00:21,060
My nephew was 18 years old; he was martyred.

7
00:00:21,060 --> 00:00:22,820
Every day we say we’ll die tomorrow

8
00:00:22,820 --> 00:00:26,100
and we don’t know what will happen to us

9
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,700
or how much we’ll suffer.

10
00:00:27,700 --> 00:00:30,340
We have land, olive groves

11
00:00:30,340 --> 00:00:32,860
and livelihoods there.

Saleh Abdel Issa
Patient Resident of Nabatiyeh, Injured by rubb

12
00:00:33,420 --> 00:00:35,460
I stayed here during the war,

13
00:00:35,460 --> 00:00:37,660
and the war was very harsh.

14
00:00:37,660 --> 00:00:40,500
After people had returned,
we'd sweep up the broken glass.

15
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:41,660
While I was sweeping up the glass

16
00:00:41,660 --> 00:00:46,700
a glass pane fell on me and cut my leg.

17
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:48,260
Life is hard.

18
00:00:48,260 --> 00:00:51,020
All these illnesses that afflict us

19
00:00:51,020 --> 00:00:52,660
are caused by this war.

20
00:00:52,660 --> 00:00:55,380
I’ve suffered from many health complications

21
00:00:55,380 --> 00:01:00,220
including high blood pressure, diabetes,
nerve problems and thyroid issues.

22
00:01:00,220 --> 00:01:02,940
I was deeply saddened by
the scenes I witnessed.

23
00:01:02,940 --> 00:01:03,660
They were harsh,

24
00:01:03,660 --> 00:01:05,780
But sometimes, to avoid remembering

25
00:01:05,780 --> 00:01:06,860
all the traumatic experiences,

26
00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:10,980
you have to press pause and say, 'Enough.'

27
00:01:10,980 --> 00:01:13,340
I hope everyone returns to their homes,

28
00:01:13,340 --> 00:01:15,020
livelihoods and land,

29
00:01:15,020 --> 00:01:16,460
because the land is precious.
