La Nuit du Verre d'Eau plot

Lebanon, during the summer of 1958. Three sisters from a good Christian background are on holiday in the Lebanese mountains. The quiet village life is shaken by the echoes of a revolution rumbling in Beirut and by the arrival of two French summer guests. But the unrest comes from within the family. The eldest sister, Layla, a perfect mother and wife, will open her eyes to the patriarchal society that controls them. Can a woman in young Lebanon, dreaming of a golden age, have a different fate from that of the men?
