Powerful documentary short offering glimpses into the lives of 5 Lebanese citizens living through the country's most severe economic crisis in its modern history.
i can't believe that lebanon is facing such hardship. i'm glad for the people who have a skill and still strive to make a living doing what makes them money. the lady who use to have a shop before as a seamstress would put her skills to work to make money for the family.
@@irenemulindwairen4138 The misery and suffering in Lebanon is caused by the same underlying cause as in Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and all the other Arab countries from Morocco to Pakistan---Israel.
Ohh that last girl. Poor girl, bless her heart. You can tell she's really grateful for her grandma and she really loves her. Hope they figure things out and make life easier for themselves.
You are correct. 99% of all leaders in every area of life are actually devils in human form. But luckily God is going to bring this world to an end soon, and a new world will begin, where Jesus and his people rule the Earth.
I have booked a ticket for lebanon on the 23 of july, to go on a cheap luxuruious vaccation, but after seeing this, i will be canceling my ticket and sending the money to care ! Please help Libanon 🙏
Iam checking then country and want to know more about the country.I loved the cuisine which is very rsrely found in our country.But my daughter has Labanese father in law and who ofen give us Labanese food.I'm so much symphatised of the country's economic conditions which affect the majority.I can only pray to Allah to lift the burden of the people. Hoping for the rich countries to help Lebanon.😪
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😪😪I'm Lebanese left with my family when I was 4 yrs old and immigrated to the USA... many years ago.. I wish I could help each and everyone of them 😔
The Lebanon worships the Christ, the Jewish King, but at the same time , curses Israël. This is the result. Europe is facing the same problem, which is the poverty and violence by Islam.
*I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you* So many people in your nation spent their lives cursing your prosperous southern neighbour and it's wishing Jewish inhabitants to live in misery and destruction. Now it seems the curse has come back on them.
@Tracchofyre true, and no wonder why many sectarians factions in lebanon as of result of " religion " that can't compromise on a single issue except for stealing and being corrupt. it's a joke !! and now people are being hungry and paying the price. I live in lebanon until I was 12, now lived in America for 33 years, I have never been back. I'm debating whether or not I should go
What a beautiful piece of work.. Thank you for shining the light on these poor souls.. The sad thing is that they are all smart sensible people who got into a bad living situation because of corrupt politians destroying this once beautiful thriving country. ... I pray for them all find a better life moving forward.
everyone of them have that super painful smile that i very much known intimately, a peak of depression that make you unable to do anything else but to smile... i regret watching this clip, so desperately regretting watching this, i have my own demon to face, i really cant afford to add other people sorrow to my own
if you eat 3 times a day be grateful, never complain about your job if it can provide you you're daily need because theirs someone suffering more than you are.
All of these people have beautiful souls the old man on the street, the boy who had to sell his phone, the blind mum, the seamstress as well as the girl who was left by her parents. My heart goes out to all the good people in Lebanon. They are so poor but they have God in their hearts to see them through. It would be very good to let people get in contact if they want to help......
Feel sorry for Chadi Lababidi and Nour Khtaimi in such difficult situations.They are great teenagers and hope their dreams will come true. All the best to people in Lebanon. Be strong. 🙏❤
Lebanon...Beirut was once known as the Paris of the Middle East. I feel so sad about what has happened to this entire Region. I wish that the Dunya was not so cruel and heartless about people who suffer so much....everywhere, I shun Cruises, because my heart aches for these regions. Lebanon can be saved. Please don't erase their lives.
This is actually a really good reporting on the ground. It makes you feel sad compared to standard even though trutful reporting about general economic decline.
Thank you for sharing. Really appreciated 🙏. I feel sorry for the Lebanese ppl. Pray and hope the situation will be better soon. My questions are... what is the government do for helping the ppl? My hearts goes to them. The old man that living under the bridge, 4 months not taking a shower!! Oh my gosh... 😭 it's very sad. Get a shower and stay clean is a basic needs. 90% the value of their fiat money gone.... in very short of time,oh my gosh. My heart goes to that young girl, remind me of my daughter. She still try to put a smiles even when she want to cry... I am so emotional to see this movie. I really want to help her. Also the young man that helping his father and selling his cellphone. I know cellphone is secondary, but living in the current times, cellphone becomes our daily life. You need to have a cellphone in orders to get a job. I don't understand why the country going in such a downslide? The government need to do something. I think... one's of the way... Lebanon need cryptocurrency for helping their economy. They also need Farms, rising chickens or fish.
i am so sad about the people who are old and still struggle for their life...the dont have power in body, need more rest...you saw this old man in first scene...his sadness hurting me...
This is a very new and exceptional phenomena in Lebanon...we are not a society where there has always been homeless/clochards as in France or the US...elderly were never abandoned that way
It is not that simple, this privilege's of the first world is not found in Lebanon. No stable internet, not even stable electricity how can you run an online business. Shipping is not available you can't just go to your local post office and ship products. Too much corruption and high costs makes it impossible for simple people without connections to do anything
Paypal, etsy, redbubble and depop do not work over here, th currency is too weak and the banks do not let us withdraw over a certain amount so it's not worth it for these companies to put any sort of money in third world countries. Online retailing, as an independent creator is impossible, If as an exemple, i wanted to sell my art, i can't send it abroad, even the post office is unreliable. I would need to contact a private shipping company, which charges ridiculously for shipping outside of lebanon, and money would have to go through OMT, where it would be devalued. And since the average lebanese person doesnt have art or clothing in their priorities anymore, unless I settle for prices that won't even pay back the supplies i used, nobody's gonna buy it.
Some of homeless people lives under bridges, like dawra and cola bridge. If you're a lebanese or you know a lebanese that you trust, you can go personally and help them. We've been touched by these people because we learned their stories but every poor person in lebanon has his own said story.
أنا مش فاهم كيف ملايين المغتربين أغلبهم بأغنى بلاد العالم مش قادرين يعلموا صندوق شهري لمساعدة الفقراء! يعني لو كل مغترب دفع ١٠ دولار من طرف الجيبة كان ما حدا عايش تحت الجسر أو بهالفقر! كل هالفقر وفِي ناس بالسهرة بتصرف ١٠٠ ٢٠٠ دولار!
Chadi, the boy helping his whole family, got my heart. I understand his pain of having to work & work to provide (sacrifice for his family - ex: his phone, which is a treat young people are thrilled to have)…starting from youth. There is an innocence in his face. May the Peace and Love of God flood him, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
What to say when own countrymen shattered a country, rob dreams from them, destroy the lives of the innocent... They earned the blood money and may they face the wrath for it...
I cried yesterday talking with my partner how ‘lucky' we are in Germany meanwhile our brothers and sisters. Humans just like you and me at e suffering in Lebanon, Iraq (no electricity), Venezuela, Palestine, Yemen (I pray for them every day)...and many many more. How can we be happy when they suffer? Don’t they deserve a chance to live aswell?? This world and all the money is cursed
The best we can do here in the west is to count our blessings firstly and secondly help people who are in need...stop wasting our money and energy on pointless materials and help humans in real need
With so many videos about what is happening in Lebanon, what is missing is the video about the ruling administration. Where are they? What are their plans to get out of this mess that is happening in Lebanon? Make them accountable for what they have done. The people should be angry enough to kick them out of power and then confiscate their properties. They are the only one who became rich in Lebanon.
@@cecil123 fr I've lived in the US as a kid and currently live in leb, and trust me anyone living in the US complaining about life there should be deported, yes there may be some issues but lots of them are solvable, while in leb it's pure destruction.
The girl living with her grandmother is so beautiful and kind hearted.
yes how can a mom and a father leave this beautiful girl? LONG live the grand mom
So that’s the only thing you’ve learnt through this entire summary of people living in poverty, beauty is all that matters to you?
I cant understand it either :'(
i can't believe that lebanon is facing such hardship. i'm glad for the people who have a skill and still strive to make a living doing what makes them money. the lady who use to have a shop before as a seamstress would put her skills to work to make money for the family.
Recently, every morning as I am on my way to work, I've thought about Lebanon. And the hardships the beautiful ppl there going through.
Me too...
It's very hard traumas one after another It's not just physical It's mental two so hope God let me go outside here and help all those people
Lebanon and the region is the heart break of a lifetime
Oh, my heart is broken looking at this....
Same here. The elderly man sleeping under the bridge brought me to tears. WHY OR WHY LEBANON? YOU HAVE SUFFERED ENOUGH.
@@irenemulindwairen4138 The misery and suffering in Lebanon is caused by the same underlying cause as in Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and all the other Arab countries from Morocco to Pakistan---Israel.

Now 10$ per month can support a family in Lebanon.
I'm surprised main stream media doesn't cover Lebanon at all. As if August 4 was a dream
In germany they do
because it's owned by their neighbors to the south
Lord we need your help. We have sinned against you. Have mercy on our country
The Lebanon worships the Christ, the Jewish King, but at the same time , curses Israël. This is the result. Europe is facing the same problem, which is the poverty and violence by Islam.
@Tracchofyre only God can help us. God is greater than us. He is greater than our knowledge. the Lord Jesus Christ is the only one who can save us
@@masi7iyah140 Then why isnt he/she helping if he/she is so great!?? Only causing misery and pain! Either he doesnt exist or he doesnt care! FFS!

I pray & wish a better life for all these people & the people of Lebanon 🙏
The boy who sold his phone and gave the money to his father. Dreaming of having nice clothes and a mobile phone.. things that we take for granted…:(
😭
never take anything for granted, nothing. It's a lesson we learned the hard way unfortunately
I took a screenshot and sent it to my son who has al these things. I said you are living another boys dream. So sad 😭😭😭

My heart goes out to you Lebanon! 😭🙏🏼❤️
Im so sad for chadi i hope i can help soon
I hope i can adopt a child from lebanon and raise them here in Philippines ❤️❤️
do you think that the poor children in the Philippines suffer less ?
Can we start a GoFund page for these people?? Who are they?
I am planning to do it so we can help them
There tens of thousands in these situations in Lebanon.
Just humble people trying to live with dignity
everyone of them have that super painful smile that i very much known intimately, a peak of depression that make you unable to do anything else but to smile...
i regret watching this clip, so desperately regretting watching this, i have my own demon to face, i really cant afford to add other people sorrow to my own
Stay strong 🤗
This was a phenomenal mini documentary
Am crying! Omg ,praying for all pll living here in libanon 🙏🙏

Feel sorry for Chadi Lababidi and Nour Khtaimi in such difficult situations.They are great teenagers and hope their dreams will come true. All the best to people in Lebanon. Be strong. 🙏❤

That girl who got abandonned by her parents, I need to contact her family wallahi I never felt so bad in my life. May Allah help all the people.
This is so heartbreaking
Heartbreaking stories......

We cannot just run in and "help". There needs to be an agreed plan. Otherwise the help will last a month then square one
Do help if you can. Just 4 coffee tables per month can support all those in the video.
If not for the resilience and the enormous capacity of the Lebanese people to absorb hardship, this country would have imploded a long time ago.
Amazing god bless you Pls need to help need to contact anyone of them especially the girl with her Granma
I pray to God for their well being. 🙏
This is a very new and exceptional phenomena in Lebanon...we are not a society where there has always been homeless/clochards as in France or the US...elderly were never abandoned that way
@@naturemedia6208 I don't think so, with this heat most are bound to die on the streets...

How can we donate directly to these specific people? I'm willing if I had the proper info to do so.
Unwanted realities in front of our eyes. 😭 We can send rocket to the moon but we don't have any money and will to help others in need.
I wonder where the bottom of this crisis will be. Sad situation for the people
Sometime tell that ladyto sell her things on Etsy and get some foreign money coming in. Pay in dollars or sterling so money goes further
Last time I checked , Etsy does not transfer money to LB bank accounts :/
