A trail of shoes is the only thing left behind as refugees flee when a rumour circulates that another massacre is about to be committed in their camp.
Souad and her neighbours’ hearts go out to the people who live around the block, victims of the Sabra and Chatila refugee camp massacre. Yet, when a rumour circulates that another massacre is being committed in the camp and hundreds of refugees flee to her neighbourhood seeking refuge, Souad and her neighbours make sure none of the refugees find shelter in their homes. Inspired by real-life events, ‘Rumors’ is a short fiction film about how war and fear can strip us of our humanity.
