The Disaster Cannot Be Contained plot

Disaster struck Beirut in 2020: the largest non-nuclear explosion in history damaged half the city, resulting in hundreds of casualties. Based on her dream of working in the port one day, filmmaker Diana Al-Halabi draws a parallel between the port of Rotterdam, where she heard about the disaster, and Beirut, where the disaster occurred. The shock wave hit Beirut in the heart, but the stories go much further.
