The Synopsis
Tadur is a meditation on emptiness (inspired by ancient Zen poetry). The film depicts the lush green outskirts of small, rural Mount Lebanon towns—a world where criminals, impoverished farmers, and monastic sages are immersed in both beauty and brutality. The central character in Tadur is Mahmoud, a young man wasting away with gangsters who lurk in the forest.
