No One Ever Wins documents life in Lebanon
in the aftermath of the unexpected and suddenly ignited war between
Hezbollah and Israel in July of 2006. The story is told through the
interviewees' experiences and personal stories, among them American/Lebanese
businessmen, a Shi'ite schoolteacher that lost several of her students
in the bombardment, ordinary families whose homes were destroyed by
rockets, and United Nations peacekeepers doing their best to restore
stability and peace to the lives of the Lebanese.
From personal reports of life in Beirut during the war, to a journey
across the devastated landscape of South Lebanon - where the brunt
of the destruction occured - this documentary speaks with ordinary
Lebanese civilians of their loss, not only of physical property
and personal lives, but a longer lasting loss of peace and prosperity,
and hope for the future.
The documentary also included a harrowing day with the UN bomb
disposal team, and an insightful record of a Hezbollah victory rally
only weeks after the 33 day war.
