Film about Lebanese Festivals especially Maronite Catholic ones. As with European Christianiaty these festivals and shrines have pre-Christian elements. One featured takes place at the spring of Jounieh believed to have curative, miraculous powers. The last part is about the Virgin of Harissa otherwise know as Our Lady of Lebanon. This makes me nostalgic (though I've never been there) for a peaceful more tolerant Lebanon of yesteryear.
