It's here! The lyric video for "What If I Wait" is here!

The movie’s title theme is visually captured by Amy Chiniara, Illustrator & graphic designer and Ali J. Dalloul, Editor, filmmaker and video essayist, from Beirut in an incredibly touching piece of work.

Amy Chiniara is a Lebanese freelance illustrator and graphic designer based in Beirut. She works on different projects, from layout, to poster and logo design, and editorial illustration and comics. She recently animated a music video for Palestinian artist Ruba Shamshoum for her song “Winti Hon”.
