EXCLUSIVE: Screen can reveal the first trailer for Cannes Un Certain Regard title Yesterday The Eye Didn’t Sleep.
The film is the debut feature of Germany-born Palestinian filmmaker Mayasi and is set in the fertile, foggy Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon. A truck is set on fire as trouble ripples through a tight-knit community, and two sisters of differing personalities are offered up to resolve a growing conflict.
Mayasi is based between Brussels and Beirut and has an extensive shorts career that spans more than 15 years, including SXSW 2023 selection The Key.
Salaud Morisset is handling sales.
