Majnounak: On Men, Sex and the City, 1997-2016

Akram Zaatari
1997 Lebanon 40 minutes Arabic

Set in the industrial suburbs of Beirut, Crazy of You explores male sexuality through interviews with men who recount one of their sexual relationships. Attentive to details of body and sexual language, songs, indications of each interlocutor’s erotic imaginary, the film tries to sketch a portrait of the “male” they identify with. Patterns emerge, as do norms, but also an unsuspected map of Beirut’s sites of sexual encounters.
